[Bug 455357] Re: karmic: volume muted on login

[ofb]

Funny. I've been running a second Karmic box for a week without this
bug, almost.

Only instance also had broken sound - turning mute off & level up only
gave very low, crunchy sound, which soon went to none. Both machines
feed the same amp, so it wasn't an exterior hardware problem, and yes I
checked cables. This cleared up with reboot.

Otherwise a prime difference between the boxes is the new one's a fresh
install, while the afflicted box is an upgrade.


=box 1=
karmic upgrade

00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: nVidia Corporation nForce2 AC97
Audio Controler (MCP) (rev a1)

- boots muted with levels down about half the time, in a random pattern.

=box 2= 
karmic fresh install

00:04.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C686
AC97 Audio Controller (rev 50)

- only booted muted once, noted above.


...so, are the other afficted machine upgrades or fresh installs? Perhaps there's a conflict with something carried over in the configs.
