Is it just me or is ALSA a little bit pessimistic about maximum gain levels for inputs and outputs.
I think it's you. ali5451 with ALSA-Lib 1.0.15 works fine for me. I can comfortably overload the internal speakers and microphone - if it was a mixing desk, it would be red-lighting like a christmas tree.
I think I may also have rubbish max gain levels with intel-hda driver. I've not really carried out any proper tests though. But you have just reminded me to look at ALSA's bugtracker, which I will do tonight. I have a vague memory of seeing some entry there about a driver having very quiet sound output, but I don't remember which driver.
Thanks,
