This affects me also, using the following card :
00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03)

I don't have the exact same symptoms (my subwoofer channel is not controlled at all, except when choosing the "LFE" connector which then only controls the subwoofer)

I think this is very important because most new users will just toss away ubuntu if there is bad sound. I don't know how many cards or pcs are affected though.

I'm not sure I understand the workaround. Are you suggesting that I adapt levels on all the important channels manually ? Or is there a way to make it work with the sound-applet (and maybe multimedia buttons?)

Also, this bug seems related, but i'm not sure : Bug #429109
