I tried to use the XBMC Alarm Clock service. I set an alarm with the target source as the default internet radios station. While alarm was being set, a music file from my library was playing. When alarm went off nothing played but could hear a very weak volume level of the file I was previous playing. My sound never came back. My concern is NOT that the internet radio station did not play but that my sound never came back.
Actions:
1) Started with a music file playing from my music library
2) Set an alarm to play the default internet radios station
3) When noticing radio station was not playing (may not be a valid link any longer), disabled the addon
4) Noticed my original music file was playing at a very low level. Switch to a different music file resulted in same low volume level
5) State of system: Normal volume levels never returned for any music file I played for my user profile.
6a) Debugging: Uninstalled addon, volume level issue persisted
6b) Debugging: Opened Kodi with a different user profile. Volume was then normal and could play any music file fine - switching user profiles was a temporary resolution
6c) Debugging: Switched back to original user profile and problem still was presented (re booted multiple times)
7) Resolution: The drastic solution was to back up libraries and transient data and then uninstall Kodi and then reinstall and import Library and transient data and setup Library paths.
