So after some testing, I found the volume was still being muted after some reboots. So then I commented out (per a tip I found on debian bug reports) "load-module module-device-restore" in /etc/pulse/default.pa
So instead of /etc/pulse/default.pa containing: ### Automatically restore the volume of streams and devices load-module module-device-restore load-module module-stream-restore load-module module-card-restore it's now changed to ### Automatically restore the volume of streams and devices #load-module module-device-restore load-module module-stream-restore load-module module-card-restore So now my sound doesn't crackle anymore(per changes in #35 above), and doesn't startup in a muted state (per the changes above). -- 0x10250137 needs addition to position_fix=1 whitelist https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/442748 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
