I had a similar problem, but solved that with an upgrade of alsa-lib.
I've been following this thread, because apparently my SB Live! isn't supported by ALSA either. I need to use the gnome mixer to affect any change in sound levels... Apparently none of the numerous controls offered by alsamixer and kmix work.
Attached is the lspci output for the card.

Alsa reports it as "unknown" but functions well. To my knowledge the card came as OEM equipment on a Dell XPS-T850r, so I told ALSA to use the "Dell OEM" driver in the kernel. Before updating alsa-lib I had the problem with the controls. Now all I have is the fact that it seems nothing allows me to change the sound level programatically except the gnome mixer.
