On your machine card 0 is HDMI, which is why amixer -c0 is empty.
amixer -c1 will show the chtrt5645 mixer settings.

There have been input related fixes to chtrt5645's UCM config recently.
This is the latest version:
http://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-lib.git;a=blob_plain;f=src/conf/ucm/chtrt5645/HiFi.conf;hb=HEAD

Try copying that to /usr/share/alsa/ucm/chtrt5645/HiFi.conf
