I tryed this and for the mixer anda  couple other things it said NO CONFIG
or something like that. The card however showed fine. Anyway I went into X
and moved the volume up for everything with one of the other mixers and
sound is fine. However access to the mixer by amixer is unsuccessful. I will
always get this message no matter what I do with utils like amixer,
alsamixer or even alsactl when I try to use the alsactl -store option. I
need this ro create an asound.conf which does not exist on my system because
alsaconf cannot create it.
