Bug Description

I am having the same problem with Linux Mint. I play any audio(from YouTube or hard disk) and the volume is very low. And the background noise is very high. Apparently Ubuntu did not have such a problem. But unfortunately I am facing this problem which I tried not to face by abandoning Linux mint and switching to Ubuntu.

I am expecting:

1. Stopping background noise
2. Stable and decent volume.
