Hi i found the solution to all sound muting problems this is because
alsa mutes the sound when it exits and also if pulseaudio is installed
it only exits after alsa meaning when alsa mutes the volume pulseaudio
in turn saves that value thus it is mute after every boot
i found the solution here http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=556971
in case u do not understand
edit /etc/init.d/alsa-utils with mousepad or some other editor and find
the following lines
esac
card_OK $TARGET_CARD || log_action_end_msg_and_exit $( [ ! $2 ] ;
echo $? ; ) none loaded
store_levels $TARGET_CARD || EXITSTATUS=1
mute_and_zero_levels $TARGET_CARD || EXITSTATUS=1
log_action_end_msg_and_exit $EXITSTATUS
change mute_and_zero_levels $TARGET_CARD || EXITSTATUS=1
to #mute_and_zero_levels $TARGET_CARD || EXITSTATUS=1
thus disabling the muting and saves all your troubles
if does not work then:
sudo chmod 777 /var/lib/alsa/asound.state
alsactl store
set alsactl restore to load on startup if it is still mute
