Still no 'Master' control nor a 'PCM' control ...

For instance my ALC883 based mobo has :

Simple mixer control 'PCM',0
  Capabilities: pvolume
  Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
  Limits: Playback 0 - 255
  Mono:
  Front Left: Playback 209 [82%] [-9.20dB]
  Front Right: Playback 209 [82%] [-9.20dB]


What kernel version are you running ?

What alsa version ? (cat /proc/asound/version)

Cheers
