Sorry to disagree.

I have to uninstall pulse every time before I can use alsamixergui to 
get my sound working.

Have pulse installed and it will not allow alsamixergui to show all the 
settings it has - only the first 5 are shown. Want to see the rest- get 
rid of pulseaudio.

(Once the sound is going with alsamixer then you can bring back pulse; 
but you will need to get rid of it again if you want to adjust some 
setting in alsamixer.)
