Public bug reported: What I expect: When I use slider volume or when I use volume up button of my laptop, I expect that the volume goes up slightly.
What happens: >From the mute state, one press on volume up do graphically well but in reality >the volume is loud and noisy from the first step. And all other up steps do >not change the volume. Doing this with `alsamixer` started show me what you can see in volume-issue.gif attached file. Indeed when I press volume up PCM volume is maxed to 100 instantly and then Speaker volume and then Master volume. In my case manually changing the PCM volume in `alsamixer` is the only way to change the actual volume of my laptop. Even changing Master volume has no effect!
