Do you have a Sony TV in the same room? Had this happen >to me. The remote for the TV also activated/deactivated (not always, >depended on how it was aimed!) the sound on the computer. Got a Sony VCR -- with remote! -- and I use the remote to control Apple CD Audio Player and Apple Video Player on my Performa 6300 [I use it for an answering machine, CD audio player and TV "set" with the tuner] which is within eyeshot of my 6500, which was close enough to affect the volume. But not mute it. Think Clark's got the answer; on Wed, 18 Dec 2002 07:27:53 -0800, Clark Martin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >Check your Sound In Control Panel or Control Strip. It may be set to >CD or something else at times. That's it, but it seems backwards [I'm on OS 9.1, moved up from OS 8.6]. External mic (settings I used to use on 8.6) will not let me "play through this device," but "CD" will, and "Sound In" is supposed to but won't. When I set it back on "CD" with "play sound through output device," I'm hearing the internal modem dial. Guess it's "RTFM" time for me. Apologies, and peace.... -- Cheers!
