Hide Forgot
Description of problem: Alsa settings are carried out via alsamixer in terminal or via volume control application in Gnome or via kmix in KDE. When closing the session and rebooting or just logging out and logging in again, the settings are gone. Sound settings have again to be readjusted to get sound back to work. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora Core 3 release candidate build Oct. 28, 2004 How reproducible: Change sound settings, logout and re-login. Sound settings are gone and have to be readjusted to get sound back to work. Steps to Reproduce: 1. log on to either Gnome or KDE. 2. Use alsamixer (terminal), Volume Control (Gnome) or kmix (KDE) to adjust sound settings. 3. log off 4. re-login 5. check sound settings in alsamixer, Volume Control or kmix. Previously changed settings are not available. Only standard settings which result in no sound. Actual results: Sound settings are not restored to changed parameters. Expected results: Sound settings restored to previously made settings. Additional info:
If it's happening on logout/login, it's a GNOME and/or KDE bug. Assigning to one of them.
I believe what happened is you saved your session with the volume all the way down. If you adjust your volume to the correct level and then again save your session it should be restored on log out.
