I thought I fixed my low-sound-issue after I edited /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf and added
options snd-hda-intel vid=8086 pid=8ca0 snoop=0
I did a reboot and now my sound is low again. All settings are at max...

Do I Beats Audio? What do you mean? – Morgan Sep 22 '15 at 16:46
Maybe this could help:
Hi there.
I've got the same Problem with my Asus Z97 Deluxe and the ALC1150 Audio Controller. In search for a solution i found this thread and added to my
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.confas follows "options
snd-hda-intel vid=8086 pid=8ca0 snoop=0"If that not works and you have a ALC883 or similar soundchip you may need to add to your
/etc/modulesto"snd-hda-intel vid=8086 pid=8ca0 snoop=0"After that reboot. It works fine with my board and i'm happy to hear my music in fine quality.
Best regards Elrico

Seems like a few people who had your problem solved it with this.

When I added "options snd-hda-intel vid=8086 pid=8ca0 snoop=0" to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf it helped the first time I had this problem. After I did a reboot the sound was low. I also tried to add it to /etc/modules now but with same result... Audio still low... – Morgan Sep 22 '15 at 16:54

I managed to find a solution for this. Just power off the computer completely and restart it. Sound back to normal!
Another approach would be to use pavucontrol to change the output level:
