Ubuntu: Volume Problems

Recently, my audio has been much softer than it has been when I first installed Ubuntu. Even if I turn my volume up completely, the audio was only at a normal volume. I found this odd because before, when I turned it up, it would blast my ears off.

I managed to find out why! If you go to your Volume Control, Edit > Preferences, and select PCM. Then turn the PCM volume up to the desired level. Mine, for some reason, was set at a very low volume.

I'm not quite sure what happened, as I never played with my settings. My only guess is that some particular update fooled with the settings.
