Volume Jump issue

Hooray, I figured out how to post a question, haha.

I love my new nano, but there is a small bug in the software that is starting to bug me. Basically, the volume hikes up an insane amount (especially noticeable when using headphones) when randomly hitting the next track button. It's not a difference in volume level in the actual song, as I can press forward and then previous track and then it's an acceptable sound level again. the volume indicator is not affected, naturally my reaction when music is blaring in my ears is to turn it down, and it usually ends up below half way. press forward and reverse track to go back to the same song and I'm turning it back up to about 7/8ths of the way to full.

This usually seems to happen when I seek through quite a few songs in a short amount of time.

Just putting that out there, in hopes of a software update fix. Thanks

Turning on sound check helps, but whenever you next next or previous track the sound restores to full volume for a split second.

Ya this I see but then again still a problem I have also noted the same problem with some songs that have no sound at all no riddle me this if this is not a bug then why do the same songs play flawlessly no level probs on my simple 2nd gen shuffle I say this is a bug that must be fixed considering this thing costs $150 at that price I expect little to no bugs in the software programing and if found by the users they should be fixed imediatly.

It is obvious I am not the only one with odd buggy issues so a fix is needed dont you think?
Becous I expect this to be fixed I see it as a sys that was not properly beta tested, I test and debug PHP in web programing and we see bugs all the time but we fix em as soon as there reported so what is up lets get a fix.

Overall I like the unit but not with these obvious glitches that should have been cought befor release.
Steve you realy need to look at this forum ASAP.
