[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#1050888: alsa-utils: alsa-retore service does not restore state of a sound card plugged in through USB hub on boot

[Alexander Betaev]

Package: alsa-utils
Version: 1.2.9-1
Severity: normal
Tags: a11y

To fix this I have to run `sudo alsactl  restore` after each boot.

Additional notes:
- It does store state, so if I run `alsactl restore` it will restore volume
level set before reboot
- It works as expected with built-in sound card
- I did not test if it works or not when USB sound card is plugged directly
- It affects 1.2.8 version as well, I tested on both, 1.2.8 and 1.2.9
