Well, assuming you are running alsa modules to run your hardware, then
you can use alsaconf (found in the alsa-utils package) to configure
the sound levels of your sound card. If you are not using alsa modules
you can just get any other mixer (KDE should have one) and fiddle
around with the settings in there.

If this does not help then tell us what lsmod gives out because
somtimes the OSS drivers get loaded along with the alsa drivers and
then the sound doesnt work.
