    Maybe someone else has come across this

    I have all the things I can think of to auto adjust volume llevel for specifically mp3 playback but it still seems to happen, I get this constant rotation of volume that is spoiling the music, imagine you're on a quiet part of a song and then there's a sudden drum beat = the volume retracts for a few ms then back up, this is highly annoying, I know mp3 files have invisible tags that control this but surely if the player is set to ignore it should ignore.

    I noticed this same problem today, it's highly annoying when trying to play loud music. I have only noticed it through the speakers so far and not headphones.
