Can't Control Volume

I have been having this problem with all different x64-bit OSes: I can play sound, but I cannot control the volume with the applet on the gnome panel. However, I can control the volume with other mixer apps. The volume buttons on the front of my laptop do not work. When I use a x32-bit OS, the sound system works flawlessly.  I am currently using ALSA on a Dell-Inspiron-1520. If I go into sound settings,(gnome3) under hardware, nothing would be listed. Nothing is listed under input or output either.

lspci:
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02)

aplay -l

Re: Can't Control Volume

Is your user in the audio group?

$ groups

To add yourself:

$ sudo gpasswd -a username audio
