I have a Soltek SL-K8TPro-939 motherboard with the same audio chipset. The digital out works fine, but as you say the volume control (neither Myth interval volume control, nor external ALSA programs) doesn't seem to be working. In my setup, however, I don't think I'm getting full volume either (I always have to crank up my audio receiver). I also don't have any kind of asoundrc file anywhere, so I'm willing to believe I have an incomplete setup. Pretty low on my list of things to get working, though. --Rob
