I'm in Sarge at the mo, but I'll boot up Etch, as I know alsamixer has changed on that (more switches). Well I've booted Debian Lenny (testing), and alsamixer is much the same as Sarge for my Audigy2 soundblaster (emu10k1). I think the extra switches must be on one of my Fedora installs. I know there's a switch on the PCM slider for example, to unmute PCM. There appears to be nothing wrong with your lsmod output. The 3 main controls that need to be up are the master, pcm, and front. I'm using KDE desktop, and my cdrom drive for playing music cd's has the digital cable connected from the drive to the soundcard. The slider that needs to up to get sounds from music cd's is Audigy C. Sorry I can't suggest more at the moment.
