Probably your machine is listed in the quirk table in snd-intel8x0. Please show the part of the "lspci -v" output for the audio controller (the subsystem ID is important). Also you can try the attached patch to alsa-drivers. Apply with "patch -p1", recompile and load snd-intel8x0 with ac97_quirk=0 (this will override the quirk table in the driver). Probably it will work with the normal Master mixer control.
