Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we cannot work on this bug because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.

We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures

At a minimum, we need:
1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem,
2. the behavior you expected, and
3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
Thanks!

[Juan Carlos (qheolet)]

the problem is with the Volumne not rise and near the end of the bar rises precipitously

Please see picture to understand

[James Plate (james-plate-deactivatedaccount)]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We need some more information from you before we can start working on this bug.

Please include the information requested from the "Reporting Sound Bugs" section of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems as separate attachments.

If you are using Karmic or later this information can be gathered for you automatically using the command 'apport-collect -p alsa-base' 989392 where BUGNUMBER is the number of the bug you've reported.

*Thanks James! sorry i am a fresh man in this matters!

@James, the issue is understandable, and it's probably an issue with pulseaudio. The most helpful thing would probably be a verbose pulse log: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio/Log

[James Plate (james-plate-deactivatedaccount)]

Ok, thank you Dave. I will direct the OP in that direction while trying to get more information about the issue.

Thank you Juan.

 If you could also follow the directions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio/Log to generate a verbose pulseaudio log as Dave suggested it would be appreciated.

Hi
I have the same issue and I think you don't need logs or anything you just need a better understandig.
It's not a bug you can see in logs or whatever. I tested it with alsamixer in a terminal. If you klick on the Sound applet and turn the mousewheel to adjust the volumen in alsa mixer master and pcm are regulated. and there is a part where master is regulated in one turn from 100 to 0 and then only pcm is regulated a litle bit.
If I adjust the sound with the alsamixer everything is perfect. If i adjust it with the applet it is not adjustable. You can't move the curser that litle.
So the bug is in the Volumemanagement.
If you have any idea how I can find a log where you can find that "bug" please tell me but I think there is no buglog because it doesn't cause errors I guess.

greets

btw I upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04 LTS on March 1st.
This install was upgraded from 10.10 to 12.04 every 6 months.

Here are a bunch of screenshots I just took.
Moving the bar and looking at the Master and PCM levels in alsamixer
