Product can be viewed at http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=K8N_Neo4_Platinum/SLI. I am running Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex). I have all the correct sound channels available with the exception of the "mater channel". The sound card is a 7.1 surround card that worked properly with surround sound when configured differently from the default settings in Ubuntu. I believe there should be a master channel. There was a working master channel in a previous version of Ubuntu (Gutsy I think). I have not used Ubuntu on this computer for a while as hardware support was too bad to use it as a production environment. Now however, things have improved and hardware support is much better, only my sound card is not working perfectly with regards to the master channel. When I open the volume control I can see the following: -> 9 "playback" channels: ICE958 Center/LFE, ICE958 Front, ICE958 Rear, ICE958 Unknown, Analog Center/LFE Analog Front, Analog Rear, Analog Side and CAPTURE feedback. -> 4 recording channels: Line in, Microphone, Phone, Aux -> 1 Switch: IEC958 -> 4 options: IEC958, Analog Source, Digital Source, Shared Line in / Side out The volume control state the device as CA0106 (Alsa Mixer) I believe there should be a channel called Master (or similar").
