which volume bar problems are you talking about?
1. the ones where if you get 49% it's loud and on 51% quite silently?
2. or irregular sound volume when you are about halfway (without changing
volume yourself).

actually after experimenting I think it might be something hardware
related (ie with the volume control of my speaker system, not the
au8810)...
