[Solved] Alsa Config not sticking: Muted at reboot

Hi everybody,

When I reboot, I have to manually unmute alsa each time.

I have tried alsamixer in the terminal and using M to unmute Master and PCM ( the only two I need).

Also the commands: (I used this before on Debian)

amixer set Master 100% unmute

amixer set PCM 100% unmute

I've Googled a bit as well as searching the forums,

Is there an "Arch Way" of editing the alsa.config file? or maybe something else i'm missing.

Thanks

Re: [Solved] Alsa Config not sticking: Muted at reboot

Add 'alsa' to your DAEMONS array in /etc/rc.conf.  This will store the current volume levels before shutting down and restore them at boot.

Also, run

# alsactl store

as root, after setting the volume to your desired levels..
