Audio is too low even when the volume is maxed out on the headphones, mixer panel in the settings and inside the applications. Barely useable, it's too quiet to make conversations completely intelligible or enjoy games.

Well, I found a workaround:
type
alsamixer
to open it
from there, press F6 to select an audio device, check if the volume bars are all 100, if not get them to 100
I noticed that selecting my headphone, one of the volume bars was set to 40 instead of 100. Also one card had multiple bars, one of which labeled "headphones" at 0.
Once I got them all to 100 and closed alsamixer, I tried playing a YouTube video and made my ears bleed with majestic high volume.
