[pulseaudio-discuss] 100% volume limit bogus

[liebrecht at grossmann-venter.com]

You are right, but why have a slider that goes to 150%, but you are only 
allowed to use it to 100% ? unless you open up the mixer and drag it.
Problem is I always need it at about 150% but the keyboard controls go 
to 100%

Maybe  just make it 100% max and be done with it and thereby fo0rce the 
user to go look upstream and solve the real problem.

I will read up what you suggested thanks.
i am not complaining. I am just trying to use it.
It is great software otherwise.
