Yeah, that's what i was thinking myself, it's just strange that clipping
is occuring at such low volumes. Anyway, i installed the alsa drivers,
and they're _much_ better. I've got the main volume set to about 85%,
pcm to 100%, and everything is hunky dorey. It's still not quite as good
as windows, but a lot more livable with.
