Sound settings not remembered.

[Jessehk]

Everytime I reboot, the volume is set to 0, and certain things are muted.

Furthermore, even if I adjust the volume, I cannot hear anything untill the soundcard test, at which time everything works perfectly.

No matter what I do ( I have even tried saving sessions ), the settings are forgotten, and I have to start at sqaure one every time.

any ideas?

thanks :)

What sound card are you using? Is it the ONLY sound card on your system? If you have a built in sound card, as I do, and an additional sound card, you may have to disable the built-in sound card in BIOS, and then re-configure your sound settings for them to be remembered.

Do this as root. Should fix it right up. (at least it did for me)

# MAKEDEV -d /etc/udev/devices/ sound

I also have integrated sound.
I'll disable it in BIOS and see what happens.

When you say re-configure my sound settings, what do you mean?

Also, that didn't work mellis95 :(

[Jessehk]

Okay, I disabled the integrated Sound in BIOS, and restarted .

The same problem occurs.
The settings are not remembered.

Anyone?

thanks :)
