Hi! I had to replace the motherboard in my PC TO MSI KT6 Delta with via8237 chip. After that I noticed there's no "Master" volume control in alsamixer. The sound works good but I can't turn up/down volume using volume keys on my keyboard etc. Have you seen something like this? Can I fix it somehow or that's how the chip is designed? Before I had a mobo from ASUS and it worked fine.
Below output from amixer, the first entry is what I'm talking about.
