I just discovered how the Alsamixer gets re-set to no sound. I
wanted to just re-boot to Grub but Intrepid stopped and would not go
past the init step of turning off alsa. I watched it for a few minutes
and hit the power off.
Later I booted up and no sound. Even the sound devise on the upper
edge of the screen had a red cross. You fix this by turning the master
up and then right clicking it and turning it on. But still no sound.
I started alsamixer and sure enough it was turned down to zero. So
turned that back up.
Conclusion: There is something wrong with the re-boot script and it
needs to be fixed or, there is something wrong with the alsamixer software.
