Winamp Playback Suddenly Really Quiet...

As per title.

For no apparent reason, my Winamp playback volume has gone really quiet, annoyingly so infact. The Winamp volume slider is at 100%. Windows volume controls are at max as usual, and sounds in other programs are at usual volume.

I've uninstalled Winamp and reinstalled it, but it's still the same.

Any ideas as to what's happening here?

Cheers.

Your speakers are broken

Sorted now.

Didn't realise that the Windows volume mixer only displayed programs that were currently open. It'd somehow lowered to ~25% volume which I noticed when I opened Winamp with the mixer open. That could've gone on for a while had I not noticed.

Don't know what you mean by that. My Windows volume mixer displays the system master volume at all times. I didn't know you could set a 'Winamp' volume in the mixer?

Yeah, it does display the master volume constatly. However, the Winamp volume control automatically appears but only when Winamp is open. Somehow it managed to change itself.
