Description of problem:
I have a sound blaster live soundcard, and I have it connected to my
headset as well as to some speakers. I want the volume control on the
panel to control the speakers, not the headset. I can do this easily
by setting it to control the Wave Surround channel in the prefrences
of the volume control. It works perfectly untill I restart gnome, then
all changes are lost and I'm back controlling the "volume" channel. 



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-media-2.6.0-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select prefrences in the volume control on the panel
2. Choose a channel different from "Volume". 
3. Restart Gnome
4. Your prefrences are lost.    

Actual Results:  The changes done to which channel the panel volume
control controls are lost

Expected Results:  Prefrences are saved, the channel I set it to
control is the one it controls, always. 

Additional info:

Not entirely sure if the panel volume control is part of the
gnome-media or the gnome-panel package, sorrry if I'm wrong.
