to avoid the driver rename master playback volume to master surround,
you need to specify

ac97->spec.ad18xx.lo_as_master = 1;

only for the enumerated ad1980 codec inside virtualbox



static int patch_ad1888(struct snd_ac97 * ac97)
{
	unsigned short misc;
	
	patch_ad1881(ac97);
	ac97->build_ops = &patch_ad1888_build_ops;

	/*
	 * LO can be used as a real line-out on some devices,
	 * and we need to revert the front/surround mixer switches
	 */
	if (ac97->subsystem_vendor == 0x1043 &&
	    ac97->subsystem_device == 0x1193) /* ASUS A9T laptop */
		ac97->spec.ad18xx.lo_as_master = 1;

	misc = snd_ac97_read(ac97, AC97_AD_MISC);
	/* AD-compatible mode */
	/* Stereo mutes enabled */
	misc |= AC97_AD198X_MSPLT | AC97_AD198X_AC97NC;
	if (!ac97->spec.ad18xx.lo_as_master)
		/* Switch FRONT/SURROUND LINE-OUT/HP-OUT default connection */
		/* it seems that most vendors connect line-out connector to
		 * headphone out of AC'97
		 */
		misc |= AC97_AD198X_LOSEL | AC97_AD198X_HPSEL;

	snd_ac97_write_cache(ac97, AC97_AD_MISC, misc);
	ac97->flags |= AC97_STEREO_MUTES;
	return 0;
}

Title:
  [Emulated AD1980 AC97 inside Virualbox 5.0, playback] volume slider
  problem

Status in Virtualbox:
  New
Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in virtualbox package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Volume Slider is only controlling PCM channel and is not controlling
  Master. In effect, Master is restricting the audio level to the
  default of approximately 45 Percent. In order to raise the Master
  Volume Level, alsamixer is capable of changing Master. Without
  manually raising Master to Max Volume, Volume Slider can only control
  volume from 0-45% which is the default level of Master.
