Bug#528913: upgrade-reports: master ALSA setting muted at boot

2009-07-31 Thread David
Testing distribution (Squeeze):

I found on my laptop that if during boot the webcam - it has a
microphone that appears as USB Audio device - is plugged in, the ALSA
configuration is lost.

Then the system no longer finds the soundcard. I have to repair the ALSA
configuration.

Bug#528913: upgrade-reports: master ALSA setting muted at boot (was: Total loss of sound)

2009-07-30 Thread Daniel Dickinson
This happens for me, but it's because my alsa default is pulseaudio not
a 'real' alsa device.  It's not hardware, and the link mentioned is not
relevant in my case.

The issue is that pulseaudio as alsa default doesn't restore settings.
Even if alsa is restored (i.e. not pulseaudio default), pulseaudio
fails to restore volume settings, so that's a pulseaudio issue, not an
ALSA one.

It's even worse than suspected. The master setting seems to be muted
after every reboot.



Does this section of the Lenny release-notes help ?

Best regards.
  


Thanks for the info. The section is not very helpful. First of all, 
Debian doesn't seem to ship alsaconf. The modules snd_pcm_oss and 
snd_mixer_oss are loaded (and I don't know why), but that doesn't seem 
to be the problem. The other things are okay.


My problem isn't so much that sound is broken (it isn't), but that some 
new feature always resets the master volume to zero on reboot, and I 
have to change it manually.


Regards

Michael
