This looks like a problem in snd-hda-intel, and it wouldn't be the first
one. The GNOME stuff (control-center and the applet) often try to do
clever things with the volume control, and gets hit hard by driver bugs.

You can try to play with the model= option when loading the module. It
has fixed a nasty issue with my own HDA card.

Cheers,
