Hi Emilio,

I tested it on my Dell D600, and here is what I found.

1) When I have "Master" selected, it turns the sound up and down on the
speakers, but not the headphones.

2) When I have have "Headphones" selected, it turns the sound up and
down on the headphones, but not the speakers.

In my understanding "Master" means everything, but that may not be the
case. Anyway, we need a setting that does everything, not just one or
the other.

Thanks for working on this!

Rob
