Package: alsa-utils Version: 1.0.23-3 Severity: wishlist One of my Debian installs is booted on different machines, I frequently move the disk between my laptop and desktop. One of the issues I encountered is that the audio levels are reset when I move between machines. Specifically the Master Front level is set to zero. I also get warnings about cards about being present during bootup.
The ideal situation would be: Store the mixer settings in a per-system or per-audio-device file. Have a cron job delete mixer settings for cards that haven't been used in 6 months or so. This would help roaming folks who boot Debian from a USB key on various machines, including Internet cafes. Ideally pulseaudio would take over this job (since it is per-user) but alsa-utils needs to also do it for those who don't use pulseaudio. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
