DbPowerAmp 'Hijacks' Volume Control

[Moosey]

Hello. I use a Dell Inspirion 8500 laptop (and please dont comment on dell, ive heard enough bad things about them, ok?) and I recently installed DbPowerAmp. My problem: I have to volume buttons on my keyboard, used for adjusting computer volume, but when I installed DbPowerAmp, these didnt seem to adjust the computer volume, but the volume of DbPowerAmp ONLY. After I uninstalled and rebooted, it worked again. Now, I would really like to try out DbPowerAmp, but if I cannot solve this problem, it will just go to my Recycle Bin. Any Help?

Many Thanks.

I don't see a way around it short of an option, if Windows Media Player is running it will do the same as dAP.

Well, strange things is, Media Player doesnt do it. And the volume controls are dodgy even when DbPowerAmp is off, they only revert back to normal once i uninstall it and reboot.

Well.. Im if theres no way around... oh well... I'm still a huge fan of the Music Converter.

did you try to put dap output to DirectX instead of Wave? And also check the keyboard shoutcuts ....
