Public bug reported: the sound works fine if volume is below 40 %, but on increasing volume, it automatically muted.
For example, if i'm watching a move, on some action scene it got muted then need to manually unmute it from top right corner of unity. Not only this if i open sound-properties and test speaker, same problem arises. Everywhere (alsamixer, pavucontrol, sound properties) sound showed mute at high volume, but same is working fine in Windows XP, so this is not a hardware issue.
