Check the settings of the monitor for audio volume. Also check the individual volume control setting for the applications and system sounds. Or call ViewSonic technical support for assistance.

TURN THE VOUME CONTROL DOWN TO SOMETHING REASONABLE. MAX VOLUME IS ONLY USED TO DESTROY SPEAKERS.

Unmute it, de-select Tape Monitor, de-select M.Input.

I had the same issue. You can use the on screen volume buttons on screen to stop issue and don't use the physical buttons anymore. Watch out about a month after the volume problem started all physical buttons on my DXN7120 stopped working. There are a few reports of this online, I have not found a fix yet.

I had the same problem; got rid of it by changing the baateries of ma remote control.

Ok one more clarification, does the volume knob spin infinitley or does it have a set min and max. If it spins infinitley it is an encoder. What an encoder basically does is send a binary signal to a decoder chip which in turn should control a digital potentiometer. Unfortunatley one of these components may be bad.

have you done the audessey setup or even changed the level calibration on your receiver? if so this would reduce the actual max volume on the receiver.

Some models have a volume limit setting, check the MENU and look at the audio settings.
If this has external speakers use other speakers. If it has audio output connect them to a external amp and useing the remote adjust the volume. Check if audio settings are set to internal, external and fixed or vairable output.

if the cables are ok and the speaker are ok also beside good setting you will have a problem of the output stage in your receiver.

If the volume buttons work when using the Radio, then the buttons on the Remote are fine.
Now if the volume on your TV is set to MAX and you can barely hear it.
The issue lies with your TV.. ()
Now if I understand correctly or if I am to assume you are using a Reviever.
If the reciever is used for all volumes... If this is the case.
I also assume the volume on the TV Speakers is set to off
Therefore when you use the Radio/DVD the volume control is using the Reciever volume.
and when you switch to TV it uses the TV volume thus the TV volume is not gonna work as well.
2 scenarios
1 The TV volume even at max is not giving you enough power to get the low receiver volume
2 the Receiver volume is at max and barely audible.. if this is the case just manualy adjust your TV volume to get it to a decent sound level.

Hard to explain but I know the 2 issues can be fixed.
