Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.20

Changing level of Master channel from 0 to ~50% doesn't change volume
level. Muting master channel doesn't mute volume. Muting PCM does mute
it. Changing level of Master channel above 50% does have an impact on
sound level.

In -10 at least muting Master channel would mute sound. Now I can't do
even that :)
