I assume we're still dealing with pulseaudio (I.E. you haven't
uninstalled it)? If yes, then in the default debian pulseaudio setup
the file to edit is /etc/pulse/default.pa as far as I know. If you
already edited that with no success, can you please give an overview
of what you tried changing there? 

On another note, I don't think anyone has mentioned this so far. When
you ran alsamixer you said you only saw Master and Capture. However,
running alsamixer/amixer as root should let you view all
controls. Have you tried that? Also, according to the alsamixer man
page,

alsamixer -Vall

will let you view all the card controls, not just playback or just
recording. You might want to try invoking alsamixer like that if you
already haven't in the hope that it will then let you deal with the
controls which are proving elusive to deal with. Finally, have a look
at /var/lib/alsa/asound.state. Hopefully one of these suggestions will
help.
