Valombre (valombre-d) wrote : Sound too high at startup (live cd and first boot) and max limit.

For my laptop specific sound card (see apport report), the sound is too high at first startup live cd and first boot, and the maximum limit is too high too.
I guess i could damage speakers and ears if i put maximum volume, and i won't try for my safety....
Normal use of sound is actually around 15% and maximum volume usable without damages 25%
As i have no control on the pcm stuff i can't adjust the amplifier stuff.
