Same problem here running 8.10 with updates to date on HDA Intel ALC888 analog / digital.
It's consistent across all apps - Firefox, Songbird, VLC, Rhythmbox, Totem, etc. I'm using headphones. Every volume control is set to 100% (Alsa, PulseAudio, Alsamixergui) and also tried pushing playback stream over 100% in PulseAudio Manager, but this caused distortion. I've tried every device available in Sound Preferences. I found the following in /var/log/messages: HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 22 alsa-util.c: Device hw:1 doesn't support 44100 Hz, changed to 16000 Hz. alsa-util.c: Device hw:1 doesn't support 2 channels, changed to 1. I haven't been able to find instructions on how to change that 'low' level - or even if it is relevant. -- Very low volume with HDA/ALC883 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107232 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
