Trying the ALSA and PULSE audio settings recommended on various sites had a strange result: the volume icon and slider show the preset volume (~40%) after boot, but the real, I mean audible volume is @ 100%. Simply clicking the volume slider will set the volume right. Another strange thing: today the clock/calendar items did't appear on startup, and the real volume was correct (40%)! Bringing back the clock with sudo killall unity-panel-service the volume reset to 100% while the slider still showed 40%.

It's just *very* annoying to have to reset the volume every time I boot the PC. I set the volume from the volume icon in the system tray. I have two sound cards installed on my system (one on the motherboard and a SB Audigy), but I'm using only the Audigy. Another thing is that the mixer applet often incorrectly shows volume as muted when it's not. I'm using the hardy beta (hardy-desktop-amd64) from march 19th 2008.
