wmix, wmmixer, and wmsmixer: portage's short description claims all 3 support ALSA.
one fails on "XpmError: XpmOpenFailed (.1986-2)" and the others fail on "no
such device /dev/mixer", while -d hw:0,0(,0) just sends them for a loop
gnome-panel has the perfect volume control, but then gnome-settings-daemon launches and
screws up all the fonts, not to mention chews 15 or 30 mb of ram. and when you kill
gnome-settings-daemon, the volume control button _disappears_ from the panel, while the
other stuff stays
in summary, is there a volume control for fluxbox that actually works?

AlsaMixer.app works quite well.
I built it from source on slackware 10.2.
I start it with:
"AlsaMixer.app -3 Master -2 PCM -1 Headphone"
in my .xinitrc
(Those string correspond to what you would see below
the sliders in the console alsamixer util.)
Its cool because the mouse wheel will move the "default" slider
when you mouse over it.

i dont know if they are using the oss emulation ill check it but they
works. Here on fluxbox i can work with wmsmixer ,aumix, alsamixer and
mixer2005 from the heroine guys, and they work quite well
out of the box for me, check .asoundrc for your user.

I run gkrellm in the slit, and use the gkrellm-volume plugin

I use keyboard shortcuts for volume control in fluxbox. take a look at this:
http://fluxbox-wiki.org/index.php/Howto_edit_the_keys_file
if you want some visual feedback on your mixer, you can set up a
keyboard shortcut to launch good ole' alsamixer. something like
Mod4 m :Exec xterm -e alsamixer
here is the ~/.fluxbox/keys file i'm using on my laptop.
Mod4 t :exec aterm
Mod4 space :ShowDesktop
Mod4 x :ExecCommand xmmsXclip
Mod4 e :exec printenv | xmessage -file -
Mod4 Print :ExecCommand gnome-screenshot
none XF86AudioMute :exec amixer sset Master toggle
none XF86AudioLowerVolume :exec amixer sset Master 1-
none XF86AudioRaiseVolume :exec amixer sset Master 1+
none XF86WWW :exec firefox
Mod4 m :exec xterm -e alsamixer
The pretty little volume up, volume down keys work, thanks to the gentoo
wiki.

Another solution can be hotkeys:
http://packages.debian.org/stable/x11/hotkeys
It catches events from special keys on many keyboards and starts
user-defined programs. It also can set the mixer and displays a nice
volume slider as an on-screen-display-bar (OSD). Unfortunatly it
seems, this is hardcoded to use the old OSS-mixer interface so it
won't work with for example the M-Audio Audiophile that I have in my
main machine but I'm using hotkeys on my laptop.
Ciao
