Hi Wirrunna and Gildahl,

I am not an ALSA expert but I think it can be explained by the
difference of setting the volume to 100% versus 0db.


Code:
--------------------
    tc@Akkordion:~$ amixer -c 0 -- sset PCM 100%
  Simple mixer control 'PCM',0
  Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined
  Playback channels: Mono
  Limits: Playback -10239 - 400
  Mono: Playback 400 [100%] [4.00dB] [on]
  
  tc@Akkordion:~$ amixer -c 0 -- sset PCM 0db
  Simple mixer control 'PCM',0
  Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined
  Playback channels: Mono
  Limits: Playback -10239 - 400
  Mono: Playback 0 [96%] [0.00dB] [on]
--------------------


regards
Greg
