Actually, my initial description of this problem is inaccurate on one point:
There is no volume control except on or off... I get constant full volume
when the mixer pcm setting is between 1:1 and 100:100, and no sound when
mixer pcm is 0:0. I'm using the standard install of xmms from ports with
the standard OSS driver. no modifications, plugins, etc...
