[Bug 1465766] Re: low sound volume

 

Okay, I attempted to apply the patch. But when I downloaded the source
code to my kernel, it seems that the patch has already been applied. Is
this correct?

Here is my output of uname -a:

Linux ocotillo 3.19.0-21-generic #21-Ubuntu SMP Sun Jun 14 18:31:11 UTC
2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Also, I tried with headphones and similar to the built-in speakers, max
volume is *much* louder in windows than linux.

Note that pushing volume above 100% in pavucontrol leads to distortion.

Title:
  low sound volume

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  this is a thinkpad x1 carbon 3rd gen running xubuntu 15.04

  sound volume is very low compared to windows (dual boot), even with
  alsa and pulseaudio controls set to 100% (or greater).

  this applies to all apps.

  i can get really loud sound with:
  pactl set-sink-volume 1 300000
  but then it is very distorted.
