Hi ALSA people, I am having a Realtek ALC 883 chip. The sound volume is very low compared to what I hear in windows - I maintain same speaker volume and play same audio. If I keep the volume as 10% in windows I have to keep a volume of at least 25+% in Linux. Is there any way to improve it? I have been seeing such a situation for past 4 or 5 years (from Fedora 9 period till today). I have tried several distributions (Fedora, Vector Linux, PC Linux OS, Ubuntu, Mint) and all have the same behaviour. Currently I am running Ubuntu 11.10 with 3.5 kernel. $cat /proc/asound/version Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.25. Should I file a bug? If so in which component (kernel or pulseaudio)? Thanks in advance, PrasannaKumar
