Kevin's problem seems to be that in his situation, it *isn't* maxed. The
device's amplifier is still certainly at work when playing line-out;
it's just that the controls are disabled for the sake of simplicity and
audio quality. But the system player takes care of setting the output
volume to 0dB, whereas Kevin is unaware of how, or perhaps cannot,
detect the same situation and compensate by setting his output volume to
0dB.
