Package: alsa-base
Version: 1.0.23+dfsg-2
Severity: important
Clicking on volume control shows this message:
The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This
means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that
you don't have a sound card configured.
You can remove the volume control from the panel by right-clicking the speaker
icon on the panel and selecting "Remove From Panel" from the menu.
Trying to play audio in mplayer shows this message:

Now, only after adding this line at the end of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

the sound is coming, but the volume control has only Master and PCM volume
control, rest are not present.
