"hardware" does appear, in addition to "software", "fixed", and "null"
I've tried @Nutul suggestion (no unity 0dB option, so speakers set at roughly 50%), however I then start hearing some static when no audio is playing. So that's not a great solution either...
Any others suggestion I could try?
What does it mean "some static", is that kind of a hiss? What output of the dac are you checking? What volume level is set in moOde (should not be 0dB)
You can do this to help us understand where the, supposingly, hiss may come from:
1. disconnect everything from the speakers, and see (well, hear...) if there is any hiss still... (if it is there, the problem is in the speakers themselves)
2. connect the dac to the Pi AND the dac, and again, check for hiss (if it wasn't there in the step above, and it is now, the problem is in the noise floor of the DAC)
P.S.
How do you connect the DAC to your laptop?
