Good Morning, I do not normally post feedback on web, as I prefer to read only. However I find the web site that you have created earlier has very insightful information, and I discover it very informational. I was searching on Aol for computer thoughts and stumbled your eye opening website. Could you post something the same superb on computer? Thank you. Noel Kellner

Increasing volume in the terminal is no different from increasing it using a GUI app. In fact, if you open the two simultaneously and change the volume of one, you can see the other changing at the same time.

The root cause of the problem may be bad drivers. The snd-hda-intel module, for instance, is quite problematic.

Ubuntu now has a volume slider that can go beyond 100% as @otkay mentioned. VLC player can also go above 100% volume. So this should not be a problem in the latest ubuntu releases

Sound Preferences (right click on the volume applet) has an Output Volume slider that goes past 100%, increasing volume.
