unable to set volume

[Erik U.]

First i want to tell you that this is my first message to
freebsd-stable at freebsd.org :)


Here is the problem:
The volume doesn't change at all when i have set pcm or vol in mixer to
1-100. But when it's 0 in pcm, it mutes. I have integrated soundcard in
epox 8rda3g motherboard and i'm getting quite desperate getting it fully
working. And no i will not change to linux, i was just hoping if anyone
could tell me if i have set anything wrong. In xmms i'm forced to use
esound output plugin to be able to set volume. And i believe i'm using
the right audio output line, becouse other ones didnt work. So has
anyone else encoutered problems like this?
