Does anyone know of any documentation for the speaker or at least know what to put in for the instrument argument of playNote?
This is a read-only snapshot of the ComputerCraft forums,
taken in April 2020.

Does anyone put something serious here?

There is some information on the GitHub wiki. There's a link to a Minecraft wiki page, which includes more information on possible sounds and instruments.

Have speakers changed since I last tested them? Last I did, messing with the volume parameter indeed allowed you to change the volume of the sound - up to a certain value, after which it started to affect the range instead.
Which is a really unintuitive way of handling things, hence why I suspect the documentation is in error. I'll have to give them another go if no one knows off the top of their head.

I found documentation here: https://raw.githubus...lp/speakers.txt
EDIT: This is basically what @SquidDev found, but it is a bit less wall o' texty and has a different example for playsound

That's just how Minecraft's sound system works, it's not anything CC specific. Volume is effectively calculated with Math.clamp(0, 1, volume * distance), and so there's a point where upping the volume only makes it travel further.Have speakers changed since I last tested them?

But there's still a range where it does affect the actual volume, yeah? The documentation currently states "a higher volume does not imply a louder sound, merely that it can be heard further away" - indicating that the volume parameter doesn't affect actual volume at all.
