[Bug 465384] Re: Sound too loud

[kunami]

apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected

** Description changed:

  The sound is uncomfortably loud even at 20% volume. In previous versions
  of Ubuntu, a workaround was to decrease PCM volume to around 30-40%, but
  I can't find anything to adjust it in the new volume control dialog, nor
  does adjusting it in 'alsamixer' seem to work.
