GUI to control sound

Is there any good GUI app to control my sound settings?
When I use Ubuntu, I use the sound indicator and have no problems with sound configuration. Unfortunately, sometimes sound stops working when I use an Ubuntu based distribution (for example, Lubuntu and Bodhi).
I searched in Google and read about Pulseaudio. Unfortunately, I did not manage to install it correctly. This is not an easy topic for me.
Thanks in advance

I usealsamixerin the terminal if the GUI is broken. It's pretty easy to use; just use left/right key to move to different channels, and up/down key to adjust the levels. Then Esc to quit when you're done.

@guruprasad: Thanks for your comment. I think Lubuntu does not have alsamixer but it can be installed anyways.

I solved the problem in this way:
sudo apt-get install pulseaudio pavucontrol && pavucontrol
Reboot. Change options in "Configuration" tab and you will suddenly hear the sound again.
