Are you using PulseAudio? If so, try looking at the sound settings with pavucontrol, the official PulseAudio configuration utility (in the package extra/pavucontrol). Correct me if I'm wrong, but if I remember correctly, the Gnome sound manager and pavucontrol are different programs. In my experience, I have had the best luck using pavucontrol to configure sound. --Kyle
