I wouldn't think so. /etc/init.d/alsasound should run at default |
| 13 |
level, load modules and restore settings. Assuming that you have run |
| 14 |
the alsaconf command to unmute your channels, then you should have |
| 15 |
sound straight off the peg. |

However, I have an old laptop which always starts with the Master |
| 18 |
volume control muted. I have to press the special sound control |
| 19 |
buttons on the keyboard to unmute sound every time I reboot. I guess |
| 20 |
this is a hardware quirk of this MoBo and it is the only PC that I |
| 21 |
have come across something like this. |
