because this sets the settings so low, I am unable to actually hear the recorded sound when its played back.

Volume is set at 50%, which depending on the particular machine, may be too low; on some, I'm able to hear it, but on others the sound is more faint.
We can potentially change this to something louder by adjusting the value in the job definition. For the automated audio tests I've been using 70% volume, which works fine, and should alleviate this problem.
