Hi,

I installed fresh Gentoo with rEFInd boot manager on Thinkpad X1 carbon 4th gen (i7-6600U, 16GB ram, 1TB Samsung 960 Evo nVME)
Most of the things work, except for the sound, where I have a small problem.
The volume is very low.. I can barely hear it.. (in Windows7 dual boot it works fine, so it is not a hardware issue)

any ideas what can be the reason?

I followed the ALSA guide and Pulseaudio guide below, but didn't get anywhere..
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/ALSA#Hardware_detection
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/PulseAudio

Some details about the system:
