I do not understand what I should do with it?

With of the flags I should use?
Available options:
        --with-aplay (includes the output of aplay -l)
        --with-amixer (includes the output of amixer)
        --with-alsactl (includes the output of alsactl)
        --with-configs (includes the output of ~/.asoundrc and
            /etc/asound.conf if they exist)
        --with-devices (shows the device nodes in /dev/snd/)
        --with-dmesg (shows the ALSA/HDA kernel messages)


>>>> you have to ask pulseaudio developer how to calculate -87.5dB and 8.5dB,

I do not clearly understand what I should do.

Title:
  Pulseaudio does not recognize sound levels correctly.

Status in PulseAudio sound server:
  Fix Released
Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I am setting volume to 75-100% sounds is amplified and quality is very 
bad. 
  Setting for "Unampified" in sound settings (which is placed around 50% of the 
bar) makes sound is almost unhearable. 

  Sound is good and loud around 60% of volume. This is really annoying
  because setting volume from keyboard or sound indicator is useless ->
  volume up makes terrible sound, volume down only 10% to
  50%(unamplified) makes there is almost no sound.
