WSJT low power but radio RF Power normal. What did I miss?

On my 6600 WSJTx (not through HRD, Using WSJT alone) its decoding fine. (HRD is fully working well). While I get normal RF power levels from the radio, WSJT is a tiny power level. For example 100W Flex tune power gets 15W out on WSJTx. Ive gone through the WSJTX config page already and all the settings are set. Any help would be very appreciated.

    adding to the above question. On FT8 transmission enabled there is no audio on monitor at any level. This seems to be an transmit audio problem then?

    have you verified TX Bandwidth? Try using Fake It to keep TX audio between 1609 and 2000 Hz to rule out being close to edge of TX filters.

    Set TX Power in WSJT-X all the way up and DAX TX to 48. That should keep TX audio level right at zero but still peaking yellow.
