Only by fiddling extensively with the radio and performing a specific action with the volume knob (which I'm not proud of, nor will I admit to) was I finally able to turn it down (at which point it was at max volume on "The Chronic" I believe).

That's probably because the sai pump kicks in when you start the car, once it stops you see the voltage come back to normal.
