I still ended up with the sound muted. It appears that

alsactl restore

wasn't being run as when I ran it after kde started, the un-muted sound 
levels were restored.

It appears that the alsa-utils start script is only run from /etc/rcS.d/ 
- is this correct:

ls -al /etc/rc*d/|grep alsa
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root   20 2005-12-24 20:00 K50alsa-utils -> 
../init.d/alsa-utils
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root   20 2005-12-24 20:00 K50alsa-utils -> 
../init.d/alsa-utils
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root   20 2005-12-24 20:00 S50alsa-utils -> 
../init.d/alsa-utils
victoria:/home/amarsh04# find /etc -name S50alsa-utils -print
/etc/rcS.d/S50alsa-utils
