I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 and just would like to adjust audio level simply. The problem is that if the setting is at %17 or under, it is muted fully. If higher, it makes sound at %100 level. I ought to able to adjust middle level or higher than middle but less than highest etc. I can adjust gradually the level with system's audio setting by not using pavucontrol or additional extra application

In this file
/usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/paths/analog-output.conf.common
I added in
[Element Master]
switch = mute
volume = ignore
just before this block
[Element PCM]
switch = mute
volume = merge
override-map.1 = all
override-map.2 = all-left,all-right
nano
can be used to edit the file with sudo -s
permissions.
You need to reboot the machine to see the change.
