Nope, gnome-alsamixer didn't work, for the same reason by the looks of it:

gnome-alsamixer
ALSA lib simple_none.c:1491:(simple_add1) helem (MIXER,'Headphone Playback Switch',0,2,0) appears twice or more

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

What's this PulseAudio thing I keep reading about? Can I replace ALSA with it altogether? Or does it need ALSA to work as well? Apparently it's supposed to be in Hardy, but ALSA still seems to be the dominant sound system (Ubuntu only maybe?).
