What modules are loaded? If the "Value" variant is anything like other SB Live cards, you should see 'snd_emu10k1' (among others) listed in the


output of 'lsmod | grep snd'.

This is the output I got

Then use 'alsamixer' (from the command prompt) to turn up the volume on the relevant channels. Be sure to unmute them, too (with the "m" key; the sliders should *not* show "MM" at the bottom).

Done I turned everything up and unumuted that which was MM

Once you have everything setup in alsamixer, you can use 'alsactl store' to save the settings and 'alsactl restore' to load them again.

done
