It would seem that I have a Driver Version : Release v1.0.18rc3

If I look for the mixer controls for this card I get this response
(which looks a little odd !?!?
********************************************************

If I look for any references for the Codec reference Realtek ALC883
all I find is this (which again is not quite what I expected going by the
SoundTroubleshoot site)
