I have another version. Keep tabbing till you hear the mute and volume controls. They are independent of the Windows mixer. Also check tools, options, devices tab, speakers, properties,; to set output if you have more than one sound card. I agree, it's strange that rewind is disabled in WMP and we have to use a seek bar that has no direct hot keys or even a quick way to bring the slider to focus.
