Despite it being an 'alsa thing', it can be amended by the Ubuntu devs. The alsa file in question is /etc/init.d/alsa-utils. Line 143 has the function 'sanify_levels_on_card' where it can be clearly seen the levels are at 80%. I have demonstrated to myself, with a custom Live CD, that reducing these levels (master or pcm) does reduce the volume. Either that, or the devs could simply disable the sound effects.
