An "adjusted" balance *is* restored after restart, but slider on the UI says it's 50/50.
The balance-slider apparently has a number of problems. I don't know if the bug I've found is the same as the one reported here, related or completely different. But I've found that the balance slider works (even without any distortion or anything reported in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-media/+bug/426788) and the adjusted balance is restored/remembered across system restarts. BUT, after a restart, the slider is again set to "middle" although the balance is actually still in my previous "adjusted" setting. Moving the slider, putting it to one side, then again to "middle" resets the balance to 50/50. So it seems, the actual settings-value is not read-out on system restart from the actual config used by the system, and the slider is always (initially) set to 50/50 - although the actual underlying system-setting may be different. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1097957 Title: Balance not restored in Audio panel after restart of system.

Or After a reboot the balance is not restored. The audio balance is set again to its default 50/50 value. The balance should stay by the value set forever until changed again.
