go to terminal and run alsamixer command. Check if all the sound levels shown are max!

Thank you zenwalker.Originally Posted by zenwalker
I'm not sure what making sure they are all to the max does other than making my speakers play much louder then i want. I want to play at below 10% but it jumps 2 notches when i press the up arrow in alsamixer command.
