Do you have anything special in /etc/modprobe.conf? I have zero range with all of the volume controls.

Hello -- I'm wondering if anyone can help with this. I've recently picked up a pair of nice speakers to use with Mythtv and I was hoping to move away from using the television for volume control. However I tested my alsa sound control and apparently I've got something off. The keyboard controls show that the volume is adjusting on screen -- yet nothing happens. Apparently the only thing that does work is mute, or if I slide the volume control all the way down -- it mutes. I've tried using alsamixer and stock mixer and the PCM only mutes / unmutes. I upgraded alsa to the most recent version with no help. I've seen some archived threads regarding this -- but I've never actually seen a solution. The motherboard is Nforce2 based chipset.
I'd appreciate any help available.

I'm running a Dell gx150 as one of my frontends which uses the intel8x0 drivers. I found that the headphone mixer control has significant impact on the speaker out!?!
I can't explain this but if I set master, headphone and PCM to about 80% then the myth vol controls give me the range I'm looking for.
