Volume keys NOT working on Vanilla RootBOX rom

Hi there!
A few hours ago i've install the Vanilla RootBOX rom, i have to say that everthing its fine and working with the exception of volume keys.
They do the animation on screen; Volumen up, down and vibrate, BUT physically the volume intensity stay the same.
I notice this the moment ill start to testing the music apps (Apollo) runs smoothly, but i cant turn the volume down, the same whit the other music player, Google Music and Walkman Player.
Does anyone have the same problem, ill already do the search and cant find anything. Any solutions?
Thanks!:good:
UPDATE
I notice that my Galaxy sII don't detect the earphones, this may have a connection with the other problem.
Please refer to my thread in my sig (the last one). It will help you to get proper answers.

Spotify problem after flashing another ROM

I flashed another kernel and ROM, everything from this topic, step by step (including all aditional apps). I'm on locked BL and I used *v06-1113 [medium OVERCLOCK VERSION] kernel (the weird thing is that my device is not OC-ed, it says 998 MHz in ROM toolbox).
Everything works fine and I love this ROM but I have just one but big problem; Spotify app doesn't work anymore. It worked like a charm on stock kernel & ROM but here nothing. I can listen to 2-3 songs (sometimes only one) and after changing track or seeking through tracks the sound just dissapear. I can see the track's playing but no sound. When this occurs, there's no audio on player as well and If I press volume up or down key, my device freezes (get stucked) and doesn't respond on any key or screen so I have to pull out the battery. Seems like audio driver crashed, but I don't get any error.
I tried rebooting the phone, installing spotify app again etc. but nothing. It was working fine on stock ROM and kernel. I want to upgrade to Spotify Premium but I have to fix this before so please, help me. Do I have to use another ROM/Kernel or it can be fixed?
The only thing that comes to my mind are problems during flashing kernel. I tried 2-3 times and always got Installation aborted but when I gave up and rebooted the phone, the Kernel was magically installed (I got another logo and I saw in Settings > About that this Kernel is installed).
Thank you!

[Q] Sound Level alert Not working

I'm using xperia U (JB). My music volume is stuck on half when i plug the headphones. as i searched for the issue problem is caused by sound level alert apk. it doesn't show the popup window to say okay so volume is stucked at half. I tried replacing the apk file and tried some xposed modulesbut nothing helped... please give me a solution to this problem (don't say to re flash the ROM im bit stuck with studies so i don't have time to flash :crying::crying: )

Question about audio output...not working

Alright, so a while back, my loudspeaker started to cut in and out, and when i would fire up a game it would come through all distorted or muffled. Upon exiting the game, i could fire up play music, select a track, and it would play fine. But then back to any other application, and it would be muffled again. Notifications come through the earpiece, and eventually no sounds at all come through the loudspeaker. Then i reboot and its all fine again.
I factory reset, and it did not help. I plugged in headphones (and wheres where it gets interesting) the headphones output the same weird muffled quality of sound that the speaker was producing. So is it not the loudspeaker?
I tried to flash a different rom over, still didnt help it at all. Im not exactly sure whats going on, but nothing i am doing seems to be helping. Can anyone help me?
That doesn't sound like a software problem, that maybe the sound producing hardware ( amplifier ) that seems to be working intermittently, just happens to work when you change applications. Is your device rooted? If so, have you tried to go back to stock via Odin installed stock .tar OS ( kk 4.4.2 ) ?

I think that you should go back to stock or stock rooted, via a recovery backup, or installing a new OS. This would eliminate the possibility of a software problem. So if it works good on stock OS setup, great !!! Then you know its not a hardware problem. If doesn't work properly you will have to replace the device. Now assuming it does work correctly, you can reinstall the other rom that was giving you a sound problem and I would try installing a different kernel. The sound driver in a different kernel my work better.
