+5 dB, but maybe I should have selected +4 dB, music was a bit low sometimes.

Nope, isn't there. At least not in the Windows x86 Helix RC 2 build I installed yesterday.
Edit: The "Normalize levels on downmix" setting is also missing.

It's a Pi only setting currently.
I'm not sure the audio devs (FernetMenta and Fritsch) are convinced it's necessary on other platforms.
There's some logic for it being more useful on the Pi as the analogue output has limited dynamic range.
However it does appear some are finding it useful on Pi with HDMI output, which I believe is identical to other platforms.
The patch does work on Windows if someone wants to test it in a custom build and report if it is useful.
