Pulseaudio version: pulseaudio 2.1
This is issue was previously reported and discussed on the mailinglist back in
June.
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2012-June/013710.html
I have since updated my arch linux system and it is still affected.
I reran the same test I described earlier and I got the same results.
Problem description:
I have noticed that the master channel volume is set to zero and muted
when I login to gnome3 on my arch linux vm.
After looking at various things such as storing and restoring alsa
settings, I determined the volume settings get changed when pulseaudio
starts.
To fully isolate the cause I did a test with a bare non-graphical
login (no gnome session, no login manager, no other sound program).

[frank@basilica ~]$ amixer -c0 > amixer.org
[frank@basilica ~]$ pulseaudio --start -vvvvv
I: [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup successful.
[frank@basilica ~]$ speaker-test
<<<<< CANNOT HEAR SOUND! >>>>
[frank@basilica ~]$ amixer -c0 > amixer.pulse
I will attach *fresh* amixer.org, amixer.pulse and pulse_syslog.log.gz (the
relevant portion of my syslog file, where pulseaudio has logged its
stuff).

I cannot upload the fresh amixer.org, amixer.pulse and pulseaudio log files
(internal server error). Either use the ones attached to mailinglist post or
email me for the fresh files.

There are other people on ArchLinux that seem to be affected.
