I got a problem with 'set volume 8'.

When using in AppleScript Editor it works great.

But when trying to use itlike this:
set theCMD to "osascript \"set volume 8\""
do shell script theCMD

I get this error:

You're missing the -e flag that tells osascript that you're passing an actual script, instead of the name of a script file.

Use:

set theCMD to "osascript -e \"set volume 8\""

do shell script theCMD
