I don't think a USB DAC could do 24-in-32 because of the USB 24-bit limitation. I've tried specifying S24_3LE, S24LE, S24_BE, S24_3BE, FLOAT_LE, FLOAT_BE, and S16_LE in asound.conf. None of them produce sound except for S24_3LE and S16_LE. How can I output S24_3LE directly to the device for testing? 24-bit USB devices use S24_3LE. 24-bit PCI cards usually use S32_LE (where only 24 bits are used).

I even ran the alsa script and the results are here... Your mixer settings seem to be correct. However, some mainboards use another than the front output for their front jack. Try plugging the speakers into another output, and/or changing the settings so that it play to more outputs (Exchange Front/ Surround, or Channel Mode 6ch, Surround Jack Mode Independent, Spread Front to Surround and Center/LFE).

If you have only one jack intended for speakers, then your description looks as if that jack is connected to the surround output of the codec. Please try setting the Surround Jack Mode control to Independent and enabling the Exchange Front/Surround control.
