*) Here's how I solve the problem. I go into alsamixer, and adjust the
Master volume. It doesn't matter if I lower the volume by 1, or increase
the volume by 1. The problem resolves itself immediately, while the client
is still playing the sound file.
I've seen this with my M-Audio Revolution 7.1 as well. It's almost like alsactl only restores the mixer settings "superficially." But I don't know why it happens.
