If the user has shuffle enabled - then that's what rockBox should do. I am interested in this idea about auto sound settings for certain dirs though - I can see the merit in that. Some of my album dirs are encoded with a lot more bass than others, some are encoded a lot quieter than others. If there was an eq or sound setting file that could be added in dirs like these it might be quite good, especially when shuffling through a playlist.
