once your configure the settings how you want them use: "alsactl store" that should do it.

ok i have done that but still the same problem. wen i start up again if i run "alsactl restore" it works again. its as if "alsactl restore" or a command like it needs to be run during startup. if this is the problem how could i fix it or make it so the sound device starts automaticly
