ASRock K8Upgrade-760GX Onboard Sound

[Hugh Waite <hugh.waite@ntlworld.com>]

Hi,

I have the ASRock K8Upgrade-760GX board which works fine, (although I 
don't use SATA). It did take me some time to get the sound working and 
that was because the Capture Monitor was enabled by default, muting the 
output.
Uses module snd-intel8x0 and comes up as "C-Media Electronics CMI9761"

My problem now is that I have no hardware volume control.
I am using gnome-alsamixer or alsamixer. The PCM mute toggle works but 
all the sliders have no effect. I can use software volume in XMMS but it 
has to be <10% to be reasonable.

Is it possible to get alsa to look in the right place for these mixer 
settings/devices?

Thanks

Hugh
