in the top right panel, there's a speaker icon. right click on it and select "Open Volume Control". The volume of your soundcard most likely "goes up to 11" just like in Spinal Tap. Try setting it at about 85% and maybe it'll be like what is called 100% on some other cards. I've had a similar problem with my laptop. there might be several volume controls chained together. you may have to reduce several of them. e.g. on my laptop i had Master + PCM + the analog wheel next to the earphone jack.
or is it different using your other programs?... do those using the OSS interface behave differently from those using the ALSA interface?
