How to save alsamixer settings 3 years 22 weeks ago

I've searched the sound threads, but haven't found a solution. OpenSUSE 11.2 64, Audigy 4 sound card, analog stereo speakers. There is no sound at startup, I have to use alsamixer and disable the "S/PDIF Optical Raw" setting, then sound works fine for the rest of my session. How do I save this? I've tried alsactl store as root, but it doesn't save it.

I recently built a new system using an ASUS P6T Deluxe V2 motherboard that has Intel HD Audio on-board. Sound from my computer worked just fine immediately after installing Fedora 12.

On a freshly installed lubuntu quantal ppc I have no alsamixer in terminal. I have reinstalled alsa-utils package and ran the command "sudo rm /etc/modrpobe.d/blacklist.local.conf" which did the trick in 12.04. I still have no sound or audio icon on taskbar, but alsamixer showed up in terminal for a while with a message; "this sound device does not have any controls".

Hi everyone.

Yesterday, on my dell latitude E4300, i updated ubuntu to 12.04 LTS and ever since i dont have sound anymore.

when i go to sound properties, i can see only one device and sound test do not work.

when i go to the command line and type alsamixer, the command returns nothing, as if alsa was not installed.

Following a troubleshooting post I've found out that my driver is recognized in fact but is not listed at the sound settings and I think because of this my cinnamon sound applet will not appear.
