Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 alpha 6?
Note that the SB Live Master element is misleading, as it may not in fact be a "Master".
(You may also wish to clear your /var/lib/alsa/asound.state file, unload ^snd modules, and reload them. At that point, you can issue an `alsactl store' to save the current mixer element state.)
