I had a similar problem with another hardware on my laptop.
If I remember correctly the problem there turned out to be an SPDIF
enabler register being turned off... 

Thanks,
Gregory.

Subject: ALSA + intel8x0 + 2.6.7 = very low volume

Hi,

I'm trying to make sound work well with the following setup:

1. Locally compiled kernel 2.6.7
2. Debian testing
3. An AMD board with an intel8x0 based sound card on-board
4. KDE 3.2.3/3.2.2.

I get sound working "out of the box" - just compiled the kernel and
reboot, put everything unmuted and maximum settings in "alsamixer"
and "alsaplayer" plays an mp3 file fine.

BUT - with maximum volume the sound is very very low - using a pair of
good earphones it's almost unnoticeable.

One other thing I noticed is that when I make the system beep a few 
times in a raw (e.g. hit "tab" in tcsh command line when there is no
completion available) it seems that the first beep has a little higher
volume then the rest.

Digging the web so far only revealed the usual "go to alsamixer and
unmute the channels" advices.

Anyone know what else can I do?

Thanks,

--Amos
