I work on Windows Vista. There is a TV plugged in to the computer, so that I have two screens.
How can I tell VLC (latest version, 1.1.11) to put my movies on the second screen when I change it to fullscreen?

Change the output to Direct2d output
For any anyone having difficulty getting the option to stick: Press save not cancel after selecting the Direct2d setting.
There is always a workaround for generic low-volume sound problem that uses to work: AC3Filter. It has so much audio controls that, if you are patient enough, you will probably solve all your low-volume issues.
In your case you just need to increase Master and maybe DRC control on AC3 Configuration:
Even more: I have often used it to solve that stupid 5.1 sound behavior of so many movies that makes explosions and noisy sounds too high... and voices in conversations sound too low.
I have found it valid for most media player (BSPlayer, Windows Media Player... etc), audio player (WinAmp, iTunes... etc) and even most audio playing (Java, Flash... etc). A real must-have utility.
Of course, this is not solving the main problem (driver, hardware or Windows configuration) at all... but it is easy, fast and works!

Move the VLC window to your second monitor then go fullscreen.
