Could someone please explain why this bug filed as incomplete with
importance of whishlist?

I'm using a jaunty 64bit on a laptop, this laptop have only front speakers, 
nothing else, before the change to the new simplified volume Volume Applet, I 
was using the master channel to control the global volume setting, while the 
front channel volume was set to 90%.
After this change to simplified volume applet, the front channel volume is set 
to 0, which prevents me from hearing sounds.
Changing the preferences of Volume applet, so it will control the Front 
channels doesn't help that much, because the volume setting of front channels 
is not restored after restart, so I have to change it manually each time.
Also the shortcut keys on my laptop still controls the Master volume channel, 
and the slider in "Sound Preferences" (the one that shown in samjh's screenshot 
in the post above) also controls Master channel.

So I think that the Front channel volume setting at least should be
restored to the previous setting after restart, so the user can set it
once as he sees fit and use the master channel to control the overall
volume.

Thanks a lot :)
