I noticed the lower volume level as well, not with Audigy line out, but in general over regular laptop speaker output. I tried SBMIX utility from rr and even when it's set to max volume and /VOL9 the output is still not as amplified as Mpxplay (ie, native HDA PCI drivers). Normally, on the Dell laptop I'm testing on, I keep Mpxplay volume at 50-60%, as 100% is far, far too loud out of the laptop speakers. However, with VSBHDA (and SBEMU) /VOL9 seems to be about 'equivalent' to 50% of Mpxplay's max (eg, 100%) output.
