I am surprised that it this feature request does not seem to be a popular one.

I find it quite frustrating that there is no userdefined maximum to the volume output.

Now when I play a soft video/audio file I pump up the volume. That's quite ok. But after that I forget that the volume is set to a high value. When I start the next file my eardrums are nearly torn apart and I do not like that at all.

So, I am not looking for a very sophisitcated DRC. I just want to set a maximum to the audio output systemwide.

Are there any known ways how to realize this in Ubuntu?
