have to do alsaconf on every boot [SOLVED]

A couple days ago it told me something about my sound card stopped working and its going to default and i dont have sound on default but if i do alsaconf i get sound back. Problem is i have to do alsaconf every bootup.

I have done alsactl store and whatnot and looked through google for this and saw that someone had listed modules before alsaconf and after alsaconf and blacklisted the modules alsaconf didnt re-activate, but im not sure how to view the running modules.

Re: have to do alsaconf on every boot [SOLVED]

Apparently the code to store alsa settings has been changed in the beginner's guide

# alsactl -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state store

Also is alsa a deamon in /etc/rc.conf ?

Re: have to do alsaconf on every boot [SOLVED]

i did alsactl -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state store and it didnt save the settings.
my guess is theres a module thats doing it.

going to do an lsmod before alsaconf
lsmod during alsaconf
and an lsmod after to see what needs to die.

edit: ya..theres nothing happening with the modules before,during and after are exactly the same.

Re: have to do alsaconf on every boot [SOLVED]

After setting up my sound card, and doing a 'alsactl store', I had the same problem of the sound settings not being saved.

So..., I added 'alsactl restore' to '/etc/rc.local', and now my sound settings are loaded at boot time.
