[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#602887: alsa-utils: only stores levels for current system instead of supporting booting on multiple systems

Package: alsa-utils
Version: 1.0.23-3
Severity: wishlist
One of my Debian installs is booted on different machines, I frequently
move the disk between my laptop and desktop. One of the issues I
encountered is that the audio levels are reset when I move between
machines. Specifically the Master Front level is set to zero. I also get
warnings about cards about being present during bootup.
The ideal situation would be:
Store the mixer settings in a per-system or per-audio-device file.
Have a cron job delete mixer settings for cards that haven't been used
in 6 months or so.
This would help roaming folks who boot Debian from a USB key on various
machines, including Internet cafes.
Ideally pulseaudio would take over this job (since it is per-user) but
alsa-utils needs to also do it for those who don't use pulseaudio.
