That's weird.  I don't know if you fixed yet.  I have had some 
situations where I wanted to turn down my volume.  Used the hardware 
buttons on my thinkpad and the onscreen icon showed the "mute" mark . . 
. The "X".  But I could still hear some very low volume sound.  I never 
tracked down what is going on, but I suspect that there is some other 
"system" that is also driving sound. I say "system" because I don;t know 
if hardware or software . . .

I suspect that you have  something turned off that is not showing.  How 
to figure out what?  don't know.

I forgot from thread, did you check preferences from having the volume 
control open?  It is a different behavior from the "preferences" you see 
when your right click the panel Icon.  Unless different in feisty, there 
are a number of check boxes that say what tabs or sliders are visible in 
volume control.  Before looking for stuff outside of the mixer, I'd 
probably note which are checked by default, then check them all and look 
through the volume control panel tabs and sliders looking for something 
turned off, even if it seems like it should not matter. 

If that does not do it then there may be more than one sound controller 
and I'd have no idea where to go from here.
