Hi, Rick!
Nops, every sound level is set at maximum, and everything sounds fine except the StartUp chord. Funny, when I start in 9.2.2, the Start Up Mac chord is loud and clear, but not with Mac X.3. If I remember well, with Mac X.1.5, the chord was heard in all its glory...
Is this really an OS "feature"?
Best regards.

macnifico,
Most likely you've checked this, but take a look at your sound output level in your Sound Preference Panel, and also make sure the output indicates your built-in speakers. Also check your function keys, make sure sound output is not muted.

Hi, Listers!
I finally was dragged, kicking and screaming , to the OS X side, after seeing what Windows XP does on my son's Sony KR-15 laptop.
So I sold my PowerBook 1400c/333 MHz G3, my Kanga, and my WallStreet 266 MHz on which I had used OS X.1.5, didn't like it, and stayed a few more years with OS 9.
Then I bought myself a great, fast computer (for me that is a Pismo 400 MHz with 256 Mb and a 40 Gb HD), and installed OS X.3, upgraded to X.3.4.
Everything works great, and is reasonably fast. I'm learning a new system, really.
So here is my dumb question:
Why can't I hear the reassuring sound of the Mac chord as the computer turns on?
Best regards. macnifico Saludos desde Reynosa, Tamaulipas, Mexico!
