[Pkg-pulseaudio-devel] Bug#556971: pulseaudio does not remember volume settings, always set to 0

[Andreas Unterkircher]

Package: pulseaudio
Version: 0.9.19-2
Severity: normal


Everytime I start up my system, the volume control of pulseaudio is set to 0 -
to the lowest possible level, the 'Mute' option isn't active.

It's almost the same problem like noted here [1]. I tried [2], then the volume
starts up with approx. 50%, but still not the value used before system shutdown.

Cheers,
Andreas
