opt+cmd+down arrow or Edit Menu -> Overwrite to Primary Storyline. BTW FCP X has a great manual under the Help Menu.

Any 3rd party plugins involved?

You can also get an extra level adjustment by opening the clip in its own timeline.

All fine here with my rMBP. Had to use alt-key in display prefs for my HP Dreamcolor to change the res back to 1080p to use it as my third monitor and full screen output for FCP X through the HDMI port.

I use straight HDMI out as a third monitor on my rMBP. From the FCPX 10.1. manual:
View playback on an external monitor using HDMI
If you’re using Final Cut Pro 10.1 or later on a 4K-capable Mac with an HDMI port, you can play 4K or HD 1080 video on an external video monitor connected to the HDMI port.
For a list of compatible Mac computers, go to https://support.apple.com/kb/HT6057.
1 Use an HDMI cable to connect the external (HDMI) video monitor to the HDMI port on your Mac,
and make sure the monitor is connected to power and turned on.
2 To configure the HDMI monitor, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and click Displays.
3 In Displays preferences, set the HDMI monitor to be a secondary display.
4 Select Scaled, and in the list that appears, select 4096 x 2160, 3840 x 2160, 1080i, or 1080p.
Note: You may need to press the Option key while you click Scaled to see additional resolutions for the HDMI monitor.
5 To select the monitor in Final Cut Pro, choose Final Cut Pro > Preferences (or press Command- Comma), click Playback, and choose the HDMI monitor from the A/V Output pop-up menu.
6 In Final Cut Pro, choose Window > A/V Output.
The Viewer contents appear on the HDMI monitor. Viewer features (such as onscreen controls
and the title-safe and action-safe overlays) can be viewed only in Final Cut Pro. Note: Video and audio are synced at the video frame (not audio sample) level. -
[Bret Williams] “I think I’d rather have it get higher when it goes faster. I’ve always found that to be more understandable than the choppy sampled sound. I never thought of this as a benefit or a feature. I always thought they were too cheap to make it change pitch when you sped it up. Go figure.”
Bret I hope you’re just kidding! That is a killer feature in X and huge time saver, but obviously not in your workflow.

[Jeremy Garchow] “Also, not being able to slip audio separate from video is a pain, especially if that clip is a connected clip.”
You can easily slip audio separately with “Open in Timeline”-command.

The standalone LoudnessChange does the same as CalmAct filter does, but you have to mix the master first. There you need the Loudness Meter.

Pam, make your spot project a Compound clip and then apply a loudness meter to that “master channel”. I use VisLM by Nugen Audio and am very pleased with it. Just make sure the meter plugin is AU compatible.
