Comment # 35 on bug 928394 from Leslie Satenstein

I would like to close this issue on a positive note and to address another one.

History
With Suse13.2 vanilla download/install, headphone jack sound was on.
With some updates, headphone sound disappeared.

For Suse13.2, thanks to this bug report, I tried amixer alone, without the
"nojack" patch, and sound has returned, until the next boot.

The patch works for Fedora21 and Fedora 22. 
Is there a way to permenantly link amixer to the "sound slider of Gnome?

Currently I added amixer to the .profile of SUSE and to .bash_profile of
Fedora. How do I make it active at boot time so that it does not need to be in
the user's profile?

At boot time, can we link amixer to the gnome slider and let the slider
position set amixer likewise.

If you are too busy, just let me know where the slider value is stored, and I
will take it from there.

Thanks again.
