Please spend some time looking at the Alsa bug report system. There are a number of folks having similar problems. There are currently 25-30 bugs reported for this device. Maybe 25% of them have been for no sound or alsamixer problems. A couple have solutions. It seems that most are waiting attention. If you think your problem matches one of theirs then add your info to the bug report. If you think it's different than all the ones filed then file a new one. One interesting report said alsamixer failed exactly like it does for you but he managed to get sound using ogg123. Maybe you can try that. https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=1316 - Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
