Hi Paulus
A lot brand of speakers, like Sound Blasters, Logitech, Cambridge, has this (strange) kind of volume problem, sometimes, is the resistor, in the volume control, sometimes in the modulator for the board on the sound speakers, Subwofer.
I use a general tip is let the volume in one setting and don't move in the intermediate low volume say....9 .
from other thing, be change the speakers.

Well, easy task, just put a music CD, on system and if you got an headphones, put in the green connector on your sound card, pop up the PC volume, and see if you heard sound, if you do, heard sound then the problem is your speakers. if don't is your sound card.
good luck

It's a safety feature of your receiver. It will go into standby when you turn it up if there is speaker wires touching or a short somewhere in the speaker wire. Or could be a short in one of the drivers (tweeters, mids, bass drivers) voice coils. Firstly check to make sure there are no strands of speaker wire touching each other between positive and negative on speakers and receiver hookups, this is usually the problem
