Default Lossless audio sounds different on my cheap HTiB

I have the cheapest HTiB on the market. RCA 5.1 set-up from Wal-Mart for $130-some dollars.

I prefer the Dolby Digital track on my BD's because it sounds more level as opposed to the lossless tracks - TrueHD, uncompressed PCM, etc.

I thought that you weren't going to notice a difference between lossless and lossy audio until you got a good receiver? Maybe I'm still getting lossy audio from this uncompressed track, but the sound POPS big time. For example, my 28 Days Later BD has no DD track, only uncompressed. I had to mess with the volume the entire time because their voices would be whispers but when a zombie bursted through the window, it sounded so loud I could've sworn it really happened in my apartment (scared the crap out of my girlfriend). I liked it, but I had to mess with the remote all the time because of extreme changes in volume and I live in a 2nd floor apartment.
