Are you aware of the new profile logic? Use a current pavucontrol
snapshot or 'set-card-profile' in pacmd to switch to the appropriate
channel map/profile for your card. PA will then remember. It will of
course default to stereo for obvious reasons.

If your volume controls don't work then this is most likely a driver
issue. Could you please paste the output of "list-sinks" from pacmd?
