I have a TV card as well as a soundcard, and the sound module for that shows 
up as a second card in /proc/asound/cards. On one of my distros I found that 
the volume control, like you, had no effect on the volume.

If you also have 2 cards, as I have. Right click on the volume control in the 
panel, and there will be choices there as to which card you want to use the 
volume control for.

Just a thought.
