For those who want to listen to music with nice studio cans, this 
is a feature instead of a bug.  Many small devices don't put out 
enough power to properly drive large cans.  However, if 
pulseaudio is actually running an un-requested compressor filter 
(or similar) to distort the audio, that might be considered a 
bug.  However, along those lines it'd be nice to have an optional 
combination equalizer/compressor which could boost output beyond 
100% without clipping.  Bass boost, for example.
