I've got the same problem:
1. sound is distorted
2. this is because in the default Ubuntu (14.04) mixer on the tab
"Applications", the application "CubebUtils" that has Firefox icon the sound
level slider is set to max value
3. When I decrease the sound value for that particular application, sound
becomes not-destorted even if I increase the overall volume way beyond 100%
("Allow louder than 100%" is ticked)
4. Such destortion can be achieved for any app playing sound by manually
setting that individual app's volume slider to the right. However:
5. All other apps do remember value that I set. Firefox (CubebUtils) does not.
This means every time I play a new track or even jump to another position
within the same track, the sound volume of CubebUtils automatically jumps to
max.
6. I've noticed that YouTube appears on the "Applications" tab as "Alsa
plugin", whereas for example "Sound cloud" or "Free Music Archive" appear as
"CubebUtils".
