alsa doesn't save the mixer settings

(1/1)

jls:
I followed the instructions in the alsa info file, but when I reboot all the volumes are 0 and muted

Jason W:
I noticed the same thing when I tried it now.  Looking over what gets set up, it _should_ work, but should is a big word.  I will look more into it.

jls:
the problem is in the file usr/local/etc/init.d/alsasound at lines 173 and 252
where it should be written the correct path of amixer that is
/usr/local/bin

Jason W:
Thanks!  Fixing the amixer path in line 252 allows alsa to be up and running on boot.  The command "amixer" in line 173 shouldn't cause issue as /usr/local/bin is in our $PATH, but the /usr/bin/amixer in 252 is a problem. 

I still don't have mixer settings persisting across reboots but at least alsa can be autostarted.  I will update the alsa_modules extension with the fix which will be good enough for now.  When I have time I will get mixer settings to survive a reboot.

jls:
my mixer setting survive upon reboot, just follow the alsa info file
