Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-media

I am running current karmic amd64. Since the new volume control applet
came out, which talks to PulseAudio (The one with the single "Output
Volume" slider on top of the tabs), I can no longer control the "real
hardware" volume.

So if e.g. my PCM volume was stuck at 56% (as it happened just now) and
the sound is just not loud enough, I had to run "alsamixer -c 0"
("alsamixer" alone was also hijacked by PulseAudio) to turn up the
hardware volume. This is obviously not easy for users not knowing about
alsamixer and relying on the stock GUI mixer.

So either there's really no hardware volume control reachable, or I just
could not find it...
