It is always worth disabling aRTsd. And esd for that matter, although if you
are running dbus it's not half as much of an issue as it used to be.

Hi Lee. You may well ask. Alsactl restores the
settings, and
then KDE with it's "restore volumes at startup" changes them
to what was there when you first installed Alsa. It would be
much better if KDE could be convinced to leave the "restore
volumes at startup" unchecked. It would save a lot of
confusion. Nigel.
Well, on my Planet/RH9 sys there is a checkbox in KDE Control
Center under Sound and Multimedia, Sound System, Mixer that is
labeled "Load volumes on login". It's checked on my machine.
But I really don't know how it functions ie what it does. aRTs
is the default for KDE and my machine does not start arts on
KDE startup (check box on the aRTs tab is not checked). I rarely
turn this sys off or reboot and rarely logout of Xwindows; maybe
this evening I'll try to see if the Loadvolumes check box does
anything with arts not running.
