Somebody correct me if I am wrong, but if it's an ALSA bug, which the crackling
is not (at least with my issue), removing PulseAudio and installing the
esound-daemon would tell you if it is. If it still crackles, it's ALSA. If
not, it's PulseAudio.
When PulseAudio is installed, all applications that directly try to interface
with ALSA get redirected through PulseAudio first for mixing, and then back to
ALSA for output (or wherever it's set to go). That's why "ALSA Playback"
exists under sink. Anything that directly interfaces with PulseAudio, like
everything ideally should, each individual application would have it's own
entry.
Anything over 100% is for amplification purposes. I completely agree that
nothing should be over 100% by default, but in some odd cases, I've seen it
over 100%.
