while the volume was at the proper level. At this point, I am totally stumped. The computer I had that died used a SoundBlaster Live Value, and although the sound started out muted, restoring the alsa volumes always worked as expected. However, on this machine with the Intel onboard sound, nothing seems to keep the volumes from muting whenever GNOMe and GDM start. ~Kyle
Did you also do "systemctl enable alsa-store"? "enable" means it should be set to "start" on boot.
Immediately after you have booted try "systemctl status alsa-store" - it should show it as running. If not then try the "enable" command above.
Actually thinking about it whilst the "systemctl start alsa-store" command should work to start the service if it is not running after boot, you will likely need "systemctl enable alsa-store.service" to start it at boot as the short form only works for starting and stopping the service at present. -- mike c
