There is no 'balance control' for the whistle and bell, however there should be a volume control to adjust the overall volume.

The magnet on the axle should be in line with the sensor on the truck to receive the magnetic pulses.
If the chuff rate does not change when moving the tender, there is a problem either with the magnetic sensor on the truck, or the board itself.
