    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.
