Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: not much else to say. When using alsamixer from terminal and when using all gui methods of changing volume it always mutes at 15% and below. When using alsamixer volume jumps from 0 to 16 and when using gui sliders there is nothing below 16%. I have found nothing about this other than two other posts with people saying the same thing, and no fixes posted there either. I can't imagine only three people are experiencing this.
