The sound is very quiet even when the volume setting is maximal on HDA Intel (Realtek) soundacrd (in a Sony Vaio). This true for both the embedded loudspeaker and for external loudspeakers plugged into the headphones jack.

But after rebooting from Windows the sound is satisfactorily loud (and also in Windows the sound is OK). After turning the power of the computer off the sound is again very quiet.
