I'm not sure how to fix it I really haven't looked into that deeply yet but I had this problem with my soundblaster live. It appears there is in fact two volume controls with and only the main (final) volume is up by default. The PCM volume control (most sounds) is muted by default. I have a screenshot of gnome-mixer demonstrating what I'm talking about maybe it will explain a little better than I have. Jeff
