@ogra Indeed, I think that's probably the best lead so far in
reproducing this.

Title:
  headphone volume auto-set to loudest

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in Ubuntu Music App:
  New
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  since OTA-4 i get the headphone volume randomly set to the highest
  setting. it can only be set when headphones are plugged in and
  playback has started, so I have no way of checking beforehand. (of
  course I can choose to keep headphones away from the ears.)

  
  this occurs both in the music app and in the podcast app podbird. also occurs sometimes during playback, when notification sound is played. 

  not a security issue, but rather a quite serious hearing health issue. 
  I'm on BQ Aquaris E4.5
