No, it's fine, it is clocked down at boot, use cpufreq.

There are a bunch of userland bugs... Alsamixer cannot cope with the
3..28 of the capture volume, some gnome tools can't cope with the
negative scale of the playback volume, and others.
I don't want to workaround this, please all file bugs against the
respective programs.
amixer always seems to work fine.
