I recently completed my Vortexbox and decided to use an Audiotrak Prodigy HD2 Advance DE sound card. The problem Im having is soft volume control will not work. I have it enabled in the VOrtexbox settings. When I ssh into the machine and run alsamixer, it doesnt give me the ability to change the volume. Apparently, its functioning as a line-level output. My card uses the ICE1724 Envy24 chipset, so everything should work ok. Ive used this card under Ubuntu a couple of years ago and had no issues with software volume control. Im temporarily using a passive preamp between my Vortexbox and tube amplifier until I can get this problem solved. Any ideas on why I cant change the volume?
