Changing main kmix volume slider has no effect.
Changing mixer main volume has only two effects:
1-all the way down = no sound
2-any other position = distorted much too loud sound
Any suggestions?

First, make
sure you have select the right output. Sometimes that's one thing
that goes wrong, even with single card setups.
Usually there are several controls that determine the file vol and quality.
Master, PCM and, depending on your card, something in the Switches tab. In my
case (soundblaster audigy) it's bass boost or whatever it's called.
Try dropping the PCM (if you have one) down to about half way and then adjust
the master.
If that fails:
Run alsaconf or the like to reset your card's settings.
If that fails:
Use the laptop volume controls. Set it to half and try again.
That's all I can think of, I hope it helps.
