playTone API not responding to volume parameter

On the call today Conrad mentioned that there was a concept of minimum volume that is controlled by the administrators - is it possible that this is preventing the application from requesting a lower volume, or is it possible that it is a firmware bug?

Can you confirm the minimum volume setting for the device, and if modifying it has any effect?
