I have found that the mixer has the volume controls for the synth and cd devices swapped. Strangely, this swap does not affect the recording source selection ("mixer =rec cd" properly sets the CD as recording device).
I have tested this using mixer(8), xmmix and kmix, so the problem resides in the mixer device.
