Public bug reported:
The volume hotkeys don't work very well (it takes forever to move 1
notch and "buffers" the key presses), takes about 30 seconds to even get
to max. volume, and even on the highest setting the volume is very low.
I've maxed out sound in gnome-alsamixer and the volume control applet
and it's still very quiet. It's impossible to watch TV or videos.
Someone in IRC on #ubuntu+1 pointed me to "paman" which allows me to
adjust the volume higher than 100%, this "sort of" makes it usable but
also distorts the sound.
This worked perfectly in Jaunty and it also works perfectly in Windows.
