<pre><span class="quote">>> seem you are adjusting the software volume of the stream but your hardware >> volume are quite low -37dB</span >
I did the test with low master-volume settings to protect my ears/headphones...
The issue happens with master volume at 100%, too.
Could you just try reproducing the issue?
Just play back a mono audio stream (with aplay for example) and change the
stream's volume from 100% down towards 0%. At one point (just below 100% in my
case, around 40% for some others here) the volume gets extra loud (above 100%)
and the sound distorted. As I said above, happens on different hardware,
independent of the original mono stream's sample rate and independent of the
resamnple-method used.</pre>
