Squeeze (KDE) with some squeeze backports - only using packages from
"multimedia-debian" that are *not* available in "debian". (pinned lower
than main debian sources)
On box without pulseaudio VLC has "default" selected as the audio output
module. I suspect that's actually alsa.
On other boxen with pulseaudio VLC is set to "default" - again I suspect
it actually uses alsa under pulse - selecting alsa instead of default
doesn't change sound levels, likewise OSS.
Are you using multimedia-debian packages in place of ones from the main
debian repositories?
Kind regards
