I have this problem too. I am not sure if it is caused by setting the /tmp/ and the /var/log to ramdisk. (I am using SSD drive)
fixes I tried: 1. Adding amixer -q set Master some_number% unmute to /etc/rc.local didn't help. 2. Entering the same command manually after Ubuntu starts: It only works if the % number is different than the previous one. For example the volume suppose to be at 30% and it shows correctly in gnome volume control. However when I play something, the volume is actually at max. Entering amixer -q set Master 30% unmute does not help but a different number do set the volume correctly. The problem is, I am too lazy to type the command every time. It is much faster to press the volume button from my keyboard. 3. Finally I use similar methods raevol suggested. I change the script to amixer -q set Master 20% unmute amixer -q set Master 30% unmute and it works. Hope Ubuntu got this problem fixed soon, and thanks for all the information all people provided :D -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204536 Title: sound volume always resets to 100% after reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/204536/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
