Bug#304489: gnome-volume-control

[Nikolay Kichukov]

Package: gnome-media
Version: 2.8.0-0.2
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/gnome-volume-control

Here is the situation:
I am running Debian sid on Toshiba Tecra 8000 laptop with  Yamaha sound
card. Recently (~08.04.2005), when I upgraded the distribution with
apt-get dist-upgrade I got the following problem:
All my mixer settings are no longer available. I still can adjust the
PCM, microphone, synth, iGain, etc, but Volume, Bass, Tremble -
disappeared. I tried all my working perfectly before kernels: 2.4.26,
2.4.27 I also compiled latest kernel 2.4.30 - no luck. I
tried with the 2.6.9 - no luck either, and finally I compiled 2.6.11 -
same story. I changed the distribution to sarge(unstable) to see if that
will bring me any hopes, but I am still stuck with very low quality
sound. 

I am using gstreamer2.8.0-0.2 and libgstreamer2.8.0-0.2, and all related
packages, that came with the last update.
Before I got Volume, Bass, Tremble in a sub menu in the
gnome-volume-control called MPU401. Now I do not have that. I do have
all the necessary kernel support set up right.

dmesg extract:
