I have recently noticed that there is a weirdness in the Volume Control 
2.16.1 application, where a channel automatically mutes if it is ramped 
down to zero. Ramping it back up does not unmute the channel.

Also, a channel level / muting may not be remembered across reboots.

Could you try out alsamixer from the command line.
use cursor keys, enter, space, esc, tab.
See if that gets some audio output.
