Comment # 37 on bug 928394 from Leslie Satenstein

Request

Is it possible to add a wrapper around this patch to respond to the following.

I use the analogue interface from the motherboard.  I apply the patch and set
the sound on when I log in.  All is fine.

If by any chance I look at audio selection by looking at a second device, and
upon returning to the original, The amixer settings are lost. I have therefore
have to manually reset amixer.

Should this comment be presented as a new bug, or should it remain as a
request? 

By the way, amixer -c0 set Headphone unmute 100%   on a line on it's own within
the .profile does not always work.
I made a 2 line script amixer.sh which I placed into /usr/local/bin

sleep 1     
amixer -c0 set Headphone unmute 100%

within .profile the one liner
amixer.sh &


The .profile terminates before amixer settings is done and this approach has
produced 100% headphone sound on reliability.

Here is another note:
On one of my test distributions, I discovered a new sound device. This was a
pleasant surprise.

Headphone.
