Thank you. 

This had the effect to let me use the pavucontrol in the manner i am used to.

The kmix applet in the taskbar works as expected, too, touching the master 
output control.

This had the also interesting effect of *disabling* the volume control of 
amarok (graphically it works, but have no effect)

It is possible that amarok is trying to set the master volume and this setting 
in pulseaudio is preventing that? if so is an amarok problem i think i will 
report if you confirm my thinking.

thank you again,
 Andrea
