    I have something like that with HDMI and DVD Player Software.

    The sound is playing with 16-bit resolution. A loud section of the music/movie can use these 16-bit 100%.

    If you use a software, that is increasing this 16-bit range to make it louder again, then there is a software bug… it’s an overrun of the system, you would need 17 or 18 bit or even more… and these bits are not available.

    It’s a cheap and mean software bug of calculating the value.  It would be better, to limit the sound to the maximum instead making a overrun…
