So let's sum up here.
There is a bug in the driver for your (possibly integrated) soundcard
that makes it output the wrong mixer sliders, or the right mixer sliders
but the wrong names, and this confuses PulseAudio.
You might be able to work around it at the PulseAudio level by modifying

how can you say such thing and why would you do this? the master is there- to
control the global audio output so you wouldn't have to bother with the rest.

You cannot create a softvol for a single mixer control at runtime. You
*have* to modify the kernel source code (alsa-kernel).

I presume you placed it in the correct file (see the multichannel ones).

You can't just apply the patch as-is. You need to modify it for the desired

Like I said before, add an Ignore stanza. If you need additional
assistance
in the way how it behaves now you can't control loudness of subwoofer at
all. because if you change subwoofer volume the volume of all the other
speakers changes too.

It isn't a bug that PA expects the driver to work across all analog playback
switches. Just add a stanza to ignore the LFE switch. I've blogged
instructions several months ago...

I agree that it is a bug that the subwoofer moves along with the master.
A workaround that should have been working would be to "load-module
module-alsa-sink control=PCM" (which should make pulseaudio volume
control all channels equally) and then use alsamixer to control the
individual channels.

thanks for the article, now i understand my mistake between percents and
dBs and that my terminology of 'master' is not the same as in pulse
audio
