Default snd-via82xx; Slack10, low sound, alsamixer maxed,

Hello members and nonmembers alike,
I recently installed Slack 10 and one of the trouble spots is the sound.
After some finagling I got a squeek of sound to come out of the speekers.
I've checked them and they work fine. I ran alsaconf and the output
matched that of lspci and other HW monitoring programs. I ran alsamixer,
alsactrl, etc and raised the volume to max. I believe its a module issue,
but I don't know what the configuration should be. I've looked at the
gigabyte website and that is no help, ALSA doesn't have anything specific
to my motherboard, modprobe only told me the parameters (as did ALSA) and
their value ranges. Nothing told me were I could look to find what I
needed to set the parameters to.

Thank you,
Chris

Just as an experiment, why not try the OSS driver and see if it works? The
module is via82cxxx_audio and might work where ALSA fails. Worth a shot if
you're not some kind of sound engineer

No that would be too harsh, some here may not be appreciated to quite
the same extent as others, but all are human.

Well there is of course always the possibility of what might be referred
to as other...
