alsa and shutdown

Why do I have two messages "saving alsa conf" during system shutdown?

Because it saves the state of your soundcard like volume and such on shutdown. Otherwise you would have had to unmute the soundcard everytime you boot.

I only have one. Do you have the alsa script called from both daemons in rc.conf and in rc.local or something like that?

rc.local - I have got nothing
rc.conf - MODULES I have got snd-via82xx
             DAEMONS I have got alsamixer

Maybe running Kmix also writes alsa volumes?

Re: alsa and shutdown

Did you make any modifications to /etc/modules.conf (or /etc/modprobe.conf in 2.6)?

I have two aliases with snd-via82xx in modprobe.conf
I did modprobe snd-via82xx  and snd-pcm-oss command a few times.
