It is the line in. But I don't see an option to fix it. I think it might 
be that this tvcard is not going to output enough volume. I wouldn't 
mind so much, but it is quite jarring when I get an IM or have some 
other thing with normal volume kick off. That makes me wonder. Does 
anyone have a decent tv card that sends sufficient volume?
