No, not in that way. Also it's not good for your hardware. It can damage speakers easily. If you still want it, you can touch directly the volume via hda-verb command. First, change "Loopback" mixer enum to "Enabled" (e.g. via "alsamixer -c0"). Then change the amp of NID 0x17 to a higher value. For example, to really full volume (0x2b, 0x14 is 0dB): hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x17 SET_AMP 0xb02b But you were warned...
