Thanks for that! I set it to 90 and it is a big difference; I think I may hear a crack but I am not really sure. I can play with the volume and see where the happy medium is.

My question about that:
If I am reducing ALSA volume then I am reducing bit depth, correct? Should I then be definitely upsampling? Will the upsampling occur prior to volume reducing the bit depth?
