The chip used in your soundcard has a digital gain control
with a range of 0...-120 dB in steps of 0.5 dB. Does that
correspond to what alsamixer is showing ?
      
Alsamixer reports "dB gain 0.00, 0.00" to -60.00, -60.00 in .5 dB steps.
    

I removed the lower half of the range because I got complaints that the
controls were unusable in alsamixer (which uses a linear dB-to-screen
mapping at the moment).

Clemens,

Thanks for the clarification.  I had wondered about that.
