When I check meter levels with an audio track armed, then record on that

track, and then check my levels on playback, there is a big discrepancy.

For example, I had an input level of around -5 DB with an armed track,
then 
on playback, the meters read around -17 DB.  Why the big discrepancy?

Is this a sonar thing, or something to do with my hardware?  I'm using
an 
Echo Indigo I/O laptop soundcard with sonar 5.2
