Runnin 64 bit Ubuntu Hardy Heron with a Turtle Beach Montego DDL 7.1 PCI sound card with C-media CMI8768 chipset.

Last I heard, only 32 bit supported this chipset. I took a dive and booted up to my 64 bit LiveCD and bam, it worked. K, great. Figured since I have a 4gb RAM system now I'd run 64 bit to utilize it all.

Everything works, except I have a question. My PCM levels don't do a **** thing. I have gone to system-pref-sounds to change my sound input from my HDA Intel onboard sound to my actual sound card. However, when I go in to terminal and type alsamixer, my PCM is 100%. Yet, changing it does nothing, and I see no mute feature at all.

Any input anybody? I haven't been able to find much.

EDIT - I noticed in the upper left corner when I go to alsamixer that my card is still listed as HDA Intel. I guess I should disable onboard sound. I thought I did... but maybe I kicked it back somehow. Under sys-pref-sounds, though, C-Media is checked. Why would HDA Intel show up in alsamixer?? If it weren't for me rsyncing 200gb of data across 3 drives right now, I'd reboot to see. :p
