Please tell me if its a user error. Whenever I use `amixer sset Master` to increase volume, it will not increase them evenly. Here is a before ![before](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4ccfa220-608c-4407-9f6e-fc1d27f1a91b) and after ![after](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/250ab254-d46a-44e4-a201-58f9224b6293) Interestingly amixer seem to think that it is still evenly balanced, although alsamixer shows that it is unbalanced afterwards. --- Interestingly, when decreasing, the unevenness flips to the other side. [Other people also seem to struggle with it](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69826139/using-amixer-to-set-audio-makes-left-and-right-unbalanced) Thank you so much. If it is something somewhat simple to fix, I can also write a fix myself, but for now I am unsure what the problem is.
