Mixer settings get overridden after start of the X-server
This is a behavior (bug?) I had observed since F9, so I hoped it would
be cured in F10, but alas ...
Whenever the X-server starts, the mixer settings of my audio system
(kmix, alsamixer) get lost to some rather useless defaults, e. g. I have
to manually unmute the right playback channel.
I have found out that the settings are restored correctly at system
start: when I boot into runlevel 3, alsamixer shows any settings that I
had made before. The calamity seems to happen when X and/or KDE come up.
My sound card is an old but rather complex one (Terratec DMX6Fire 24/96)
which has been well supported by the ALSA-drivers for years now.
Thanks in advance for any pointers
