That's correct.

Which one is incorrectly labeled?

What does

$ amixer contents

say?

Make sure that you unmute (using the "M" key in alsamixer) only one of Power 
Amplifier DAC, Power Amplifier Mixer. If you unmute both, it will sometimes 
cause destructive interference. I'd suggest to mute Power Amplifier Mixer - 
fewers things that can go wrong.

Things are unmuted in alsamixer when the box below the slider glows green, 
muted when it's transparent and says "MM".

Note that "Power Amplifier Mute" needs to be unmuted (i.e. green) for your 
headphones to work normally.

I'm working on a patch for more complete mixing in general - further work is 
currently blocked waiting for answers to some technical questions.

However, I doubt my patches would fix your playback volume problem. I never had 
that problem before. The stuff I added is exclusively for capturing and 
loopback (so far). 

(If you want to try, search for sun4i-codec posts on this list, by me. It won't 
help, though)

Regards,
   Danny
