Julien send me a MP3 of a modern pop song, so I guess the MP3 did reach
0dbFS, I didn't check it and I already deleted the file. However, it
can't be more than 0dBFS, so I expect that at 100% it should be +- 0dB
and shouldn't cause clipping. If you push it up to > 100% than clipping
would cause distortion, that's ok. However, IMO something is fishy, if I
need to decrease it to around 90%. I've got meters provided by
hdspmixer.

Install pulseaudio, don't use jack

If I play a MP3 with
$ pacman -Q vlc
vlc 2.0.5-4
by jack and the volume is set to 100%, I hear and see clipping in
hdspmixer. It goes up to 0 dBFS at around 90%. FWIW the volume can be
increased up to 200%.
Anybody experiencing the same on (what distro ever)?
I can't hear any clipping here (Debian testing) and
VLC media player 2.0.5 Twoflower (revision 2.0.5-0-g1661b7d)
Of course the sound is distorted if I push up the volume, but no clipping.
I don't know how to see the volume levels in real time...
