I can't contribute anything to this in the way of help, but I also have this issue with my headphones - I can provide any hardware and bug information you need to sort this out. I've just upgraded to Oneiric on my mum's computer, and now we're having this volume problem with the headphones (possibly with the main speaker output as well, although I can't test this right now), rendering her headphones totally unusable.
As with several other people who have commented on here, I can get perfect volume with the alsamixer control, but when I change the volume with the volume keys (or through the pulseaudio mixer), the volume levels go all over the place. In fact, watching them change in alsamixer is really weird - none of the changes seem to make sense. If an actual fix is found (even if only for my soundcard 'ICH7 82801G'), could someone please post it to http://askubuntu.com/questions/65565 /headphone-output-is-far-too-loud as well? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/410948 Title: Volume too loud To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/410948/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
