Comment(by yelo3):
The "unknown" reported just pointed out that when the volume is set to 0%
alsa can't report -inf dB. He demonstrated this by quoting the audio
chipset specification manual.
So, if you say that my problem of having mute at 14% is caused by the fact
that ALSA does not put -inf when the volume is 0%, this will never be
possible (with my chipset).
If instead the problem is different, please tell me how can I discover
which are the wrong dB values exported by ALSA.
I visited this wiki page http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/BadDecibel and
executed the application:
./dbverify 0 Master 30 200
I hear the sound all the times with the same amplitude, but I don't
understand what exactly should I do. The application output should really
be more verbose and tell the user what to do.
