(In reply to Christos Margiolis from comment #9)
I tested on 13.2, not on CURRENT and 14.2. Maybe something has changed, I have
no these versions installed.
Also, I adjusted volume level by mixer so that I got equal volume levels in
both cases, in order to exclude "sound too loud and thus is clipping" case.

Case 1: sysctl hw.snd.vpc_0db=45; mixer vol = 100 #clean sound
Case 2: sysctl hw.snd.vpc_0db=4; mixer vol = 70 #distorted sound

In both cases the sound is approx equal loud, but the distortion in the second
case is obvious.

Well, extra loudness seems to be the cause, but not on the end of the chain
(i.e. this is not speakers overloading nor clipping of summary signal). I
suppose incorrect recalculation of sound flow (its louder sections) while
hw.snd.vpc_0db is not default, so that even after we low down volume level by
mixer, the sound is already corrupted, and the distortion is heard even on
lower volume levels.
