Switching to another version of ALSA wasn't possible since I am using
the 2.6 kernel and the ALSA modules are part of the kernel package.
However, I did manage to fix the problem in an unexpected way. I
changed the .asoundrc file to read:
------------------
pcm.via82xx {
type hw
card 0
device 1
}
ctl.via82xx {
type hw
card 0
}
------------------
Then I changed the MythTV settings for "Audio output device" back to /
dev/dsp, and "Mixer Device" to /dev/mixer. Those are the defaults
for OSS, so I don't know if this means that I'm using OSS emulation
or what. But frankly, I don't care, because this seems to have
worked. I now have volume control with the ALSA drivers.

I would second this. Try using different ALSA versions. Move back
a version or up one if you are not at the latest already and see if
that makes a difference. I've also had different experiences using
RPM vs. source compiles with source being more stable for me for
whatever reason.
