 Posted: Fri Sep 29, 2006 8:00 am Post subject: ALSA sound issue - Settings reseted [solved] |
 |
|
Everytime I reboot my computer my sound settings seems to disappear, and I have to configure my soundcard in gnome-alsamixer once again. This is necessary since, by default, all my settings (PCM, Capture, Center, Surround and etc.) on my soundcard are muted. Do anyone know how to deal with this problem? I have the alsa sound module compiled into my 2.6.18-kernel. Notice that my sound works perfect when I have configurated it with gnome-alsamixer.
| Code: | # lspci -v|grep -i audio
00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] AC'97 Sound Controller (rev a0)
|
| Code: | # cat /etc/conf.d/alsasound|grep -v "#"
ENABLE_OSS_EMUL="no"
RESTORE_ON_START="yes"
SAVE_ON_STOP="yes"
|
I have searched both on this forum and on google without any good results.

as root, try | Code: | | /etc/init.d/alsasound save |
If this fives you an error "ERROR: Cannot find alsactl." , then you need to (re)emerge alsa-utils |

I found the solution! In my case it was
as root, which saved the settings for sound card 1. I guess just "alsactl store" works good as well. How ever, I think it is neccessary to have alsa loaded at the default runlevel. Check if you need to add it.
| Code: | | rc-update -s|grep alsa |
as root. If no result; then you need to add it.
| Code: | | rc-update add alsa default |
even this as root. |
