sound

I have a new Sony Viao netbook and have a problem with the sound - or lack of loudness thereof.

When using GTalk or chat in GMail with earphones all is OK but when using the netbooks' built in speakers the sound is very very faint (also in the GMail Chat test section). I installed the Sony sound drivers and checked all the sound settings, VLC also plays music at an acceptable level but still not as load as my old MacBook did.

All settings are set at 100% - but are still too much too soft to use.

Anyone got an idea?
