[Sony Cross-Device General] Indicious Flow:
Insane Volume Boost

Ok, I've figured out what was causing the insane volume boost in the mixer_paths.xml

If you want to see the issue, It's inside here.

Just extract the mixer_paths.xml, use any root explorer and paste it into /system/etc/ and chmod 644 (rw- r-- r--) it.

It should fix the insane volume. Replace this only after you flash the Sound Mod.

Anyways, definitely enjoying the Sound Mod v3.0 with no issues at all! Enjoying it. 5.0.2 Z2 :D
