I'm experiencing a problem: the volume is very low, even though it's mechanically at maximum. It worked well on Windows.

Open a terminal, and issue the command: alsamixer

You will get a UI displaying various volume bars.

Press the F6 key. It will bring up a dialogue with the installed sound cards / sound devices. Pick the one you want to adjust. The UI will be updated to reflect the chosen device.

See if any of the volume bars are not on 100%. Navigate with the Left arrow and Right arrow arrow keys, and increase the volume with the Up arrow.

When you are done, press Esc. It will exit the application and you get returned to the terminal.

This was just a guess, maybe your issue is different. But for me this worked on Ubuntu 20.04, on occassion.
