All that I could gather as information follows as attachment. try to raise and unmute "Headphone" volume. it's a kind of bug in alsa driver, because this volume is not really a headphone but a "true line-out" volume according to the definition of AC97 spec 2.2.

I changed the volume in asound.state and did alsactl restore 0 is there anyway to get it so that it is the master volume as aumix and other applications cannot change the volume now. any mapping file I can change so that Headphone becomes master. Thanks for the info so far I was scratching my head on this for while.
