Package: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686
Version: 2.6.17-9~bpo.1
Severity: important

I bought a Asrock 775i65G R2.0 board and it has a CMI9761A audio chip (I
checked in Windows).  "lspci -vvv" excerpt:

With this kernel, neither master nor pcm volumes are working (either
through an OSS mixer (aumix) or alsamixer).  Actually PCM volume is blocked
at maximum.  Master seems to have absolutely no effect (volume, muting and
unmuting).  However muting pcm works as expected, but is pretty useless in
this situation.

I also tested a live KUbuntu 6.06 cd, it has a (modified) 2.6.15 kernel,
and with it the situation is better:  pcm volume is working as expected
(but master is still inoperant).

So the hardware has a working mixer (at least partially), and the current
sound driver seems broken (snd_intel8x0?  snd_ac97_codec?  snd_ac97_bus?)
because it has worked somewhere in the past.

In case it's relevant, a Intel Core2Duo E6400 is plugged in the board, so
the kernel works in SMP (and effectively shows 2 CPUs).
