Good news for me, bad news for this bug: Today, I got my new Mainboard/CPU/RAM, (Gigabyte GA-MA69GM-S2H), and with the new soundcard ("HDA-Intel - HDA ATI SB"), all problems are gone. ALSA ignores my .asoundrc, rhythmbox works again, I have sound on all channels, and I have a "Software Mixer" control that controls all channels in a uniform manner. I am happy :)
FYI: The old board was an ASRock 939Dual-Sata2, with onboard AC97 sound (Realtek RTL850 or something like that). I am sorry for not being more helpful, but as the old board is lying on the shelf for now, I cannot do any more tests.
