Greetings!

I use a command like this for amixer, if memory serves:

amixer -c 0 sset Master 100%

I think the "-c 0" is for the soundcard to use.  There may be another 
dash before "sset" (set with an extra s).  I think I added "playback" 
after Master when I last did this.  I think I also need to capitalize 
the M in Master.
