Description of problem: my pc has a speaker that should be off with insertion of headphones into the jack... so i had to use the g-v-m and the "Headphone Jack Sense" check-box under the Switches tab to set this as the desired behavior (seems like it should be the default ??). on reboot - the setting for this switch is not in the state i had selected. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-volume-manager-2.15.0-2.fc6 How reproducible: always.
g-v-m handles disk media, not sound. Reassigning.
oops. oh, hahahaha, and gnome-media handles volume... sorry couldn't help myself.
um, and with gnome-media-2.16.1-2.fc6 this seems to be working ok. switchs have been preserved across last two reboots. perhaps my original experience was with a desktop that 'froze' and required a cold boot w/o proper shutdown....
