Worked OOTB, although the advanced controls are not directly accessible via the GUI. Basic mixer controls levels are suppport in the GUI.
alsamixer offers a more complete set of controls including setting EQ preset, but no option to set a custom eq settings.
Bass cross over, Bass volume, Crystalyzer etc all preset.
alsamixergui will give you a very ancient rudimentary GUI.

After many hours was able to get sound to come out of speakers. Could not get an equalizer to work so sound output is much ower frequency than it should be. Dell XPS desktop system, Soundblaster Z card,.

Alsamixer works fine, but pavucontrol doesn't recognize headphones as plugged in and therefore doesn't let me choose the sound card as default output device. Although I can hear everything just fine, when I set the sound card as output device for an application manually.
It worked perfectly fine in the live system before installing the OS. Don't know why this bug appeared.
