actually there *is* an alsamixer issue, but i'm not certain that's
the exact problem. alsamixer allows mute/unmute and volume adjustment
on only a few things: master, pc speaker and capture. while it allows
mute/unmute on the headphones column, no volume adjustment is
allowed, nor is any adjustment of any of the other columns.
despite this, usign xmms sent to alsa hw:0 (w/o jack) sends sound out
the headphone jack but not the speakers.
