     Type:  defect          |      Status:  new    
 Priority:  normal          |   Milestone:  0.9.15 
Component:  daemon          |    Severity:  normal 
 Keywords:                  |  
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 Running PA 0.9.14 on openSUSE, I am able to set the volume up to 480% via
 Devices -> Sinks -> alsa_output -> Properties

 See the following screenshots;

 Note, setting it higher than 100% will produce useless noise
