[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#270953: alsa-base: Alsa does not correctly restore sound card setting

[Eric Valette]

Package: alsa-base
Version: 1.0.5a-3
Severity: normal

Recent linux kernel have integrated alsa 1.6 and a number of changes have occured in the possible emu10k1 setting. Apparently this setting are not restored at boot time as I need to start alsamixer and set 4 or 5 items beore getting sound.

This is annoying...
