First of all I went with
http://www.alsa-project.org/~jfulmer/alsa-faq.html (2.8):
amixer set Master on
amixer set PCM on
amixer set Master 75%
amixer set PCM 75%
Then I un-muted (and set to "max") _every_thing.

A reboot fixed it for me, and if I'd know why, I'd be much happier
(because with the new box I'd like uptimes as with the old one: from
power-outage to power-outage).
