[linux-audio-user] saving mixer settings on Mandrake 9.1

[Gustavo Zamorano S.]

After you get the Alsa drivers, you should also get the tools and utils.
I added the following lines to my /etc/rc.local file for initial audio 
setup while starting Red Hat Linux:

echo "Adjusting sound card controls..."
# Turn on PCM, CD, Headphones and Speaker
/usr/bin/amixer cset numid=22 1         # Turn on PCM
/usr/bin/amixer cset numid=16 1         # Turn on CD
/usr/bin/amixer cset numid=7 1          # Turn on speaker
/usr/bin/amixer cset numid=3 1          # Turn on Headphones
/usr/bin/amixer cset numid=23 24,24     # Set PCM Volume
/usr/bin/amixer cset numid=17 24,24     # Set CD Volume
/usr/bin/amixer cset numid=4 24,24      # Set Headphones Volume
/usr/bin/amixer cset numid=8 13         # Set speaker Volume

If not, all of them are mute.
