I have the same problem except Alsamixer is set correctly and I can find "system-config-soundcard" at "/usr/bin/system-config-soundcard" but with no result,it will not run.Any other way to test my sound card.
In system-config-soundcard go to System tab, click "Reload audio drivers", click "Apply" button, then give sound test another go.
