Hi all I have a KV7MM+ board with via8235
I also had the same problem and this does indeed fix it. I changed the volume in asound.state and did alsactl restore 0 is there anyway to get it so that it is the master volume as aumix and other applications cannot change the volume now. any mapping file I can change so that Headphone becomes master. Thanks for the info so far I was scratching my head on this for while.
