[Thomas Hood]

Package: alsa-base
Version: 1.0.8-2~unreleased3
Severity: wishlist

As discussed in ubuntu bug report #5525 ...

    https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5525

if there is no asound.state file (as at the time of initial installation)
then mixer levels should be initialized to reasonable values rather than
to zero.
