I agree that the default is currently too loud.

It should do that already, but I'll test in detail tomorrow.

The maximum level is defined in the tone-generator upstart session file
(variable DTMF_VOLUME), as a percentage (0..100) of the system volume,
(seems to be quite non-linear, e.g. 20 is way louder than 10).

The volume slider is obeyed - but after reboot sometimes forgotten, see
bug 598308.

I'll give more detail after testing, but also cc:ing Ricardo, he is
working on bug 598308 as well as the overall system default volumes.
