Question: Every time I start up I have to go into the Volume Control and raise the speaker volume from the bottom to the top to get sound. Is there any way to set the Speaker Volume to max as default?

amixer set 'Front',0 100% unmute
should do it, placed anywhere in your startup files. In Openbox I put it in autostart.sh
You might have to raise other channels too, such as PCM. Just type amixer to see the list.

install alsa-utils and add alsa to DAEMONS list in rc.conf
Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Well that depends to some extent on what desktop you're using (Openbox, KDE, Gnome, etc). For openbox I add it to ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh as
amixer set 'Front',0 100% unmute &
For others, you could probably put it in ~/.xinitrc before the exec command which starts your session, eg...
#!/bin/sh
#
# ~/.xinitrc
#
# Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
# exec gnome-session
# exec startkde
# exec startxfce4
# ...or the Window Manager of your choice
# Volume
amixer set 'Front',0 100% unmute
amixer set 'PCM',0 100% unmute
# Openbox
exec openbox-session
