Sound works OK from a variety of applications, including alsaplayer,
realplayer, and mplayer. However, when any application changes a mixer

I have the same motherboard and i was facing same problem. after
searching through google and various linux-related site, I found two
steps to solve this problem.

NOTE: install alsa-oss, alsa-utils packages
1. edit: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
Add the following line at the end of the file,

"options snd-hda-intel position-fix=1 model=3stack" (withour
quotes)

Thank you! This worked fine. There was no need for step 2 -- just the above fixed the problem.
