Hi,

Have a look at /sys/dev/sound/usb/uaudio.c .

USB Mixer control's range are part of the audio descriptors in the 
configuration descriptor. If 0 does not mean off, then maybe some bias value 
is computed wrong.

Compile kernel with options USB_DEBUG and enable hw.usb.uaudio.debug=15

Then look in dmesg for minimum and maximum mixer ctl. values.
