Bug Description
When the volume sliders are brought to the bottom, no sound should be audible. When I bring the sound down to minimum (whether with GNOME or alsamixer), sound is still audible. I am using Dapper x86. This has been occuring since Warty. To make audio no longer audible, I must also bring the PCM mixer down to minimum, or "Mute" the master.
I guess there's two options to fixing this:
a) Fix the problem at the root: in alsa.
b) When the volume drops to 0 in alsamixer or gnome, "mute" the master.
I am using a Creative SB Live.

I'm having the same problem; i've got an AC97 soundcard, using dapper (latest version) - bringing the volume to 0 with my multimedia keyboard shows the "mute" logo but doesn't mute the sound; whereas the mute button is working fine.
