Well damn. Out of curiosity, have you tried installing and firing up 
gnome-alsamixer? It presents stuff in a much more logical fashion than 
cli alsamixer, and is far more complete than kmix or any other gui 
sound card config app. Perhaps something will show up in the lower area 
there that doesn't elsewhere... (I've seen alsamixer look drastically 
different from time to time on the exact same card for some unknown 
reason...)

I'd hate for you to have to install Windows! On the note of installing, 
time to install my new copy of Mac OS X 10.3...
