John, I feel that to log out and then back in, each time I boot, is a bit cumbersome.
For the record, that's not what I recommended.
I recommended doing it ONCE. In my experience this sets the state that KDE tries to restore each you log in.
This fixed this very same problem for me.
John, apologies for mis-understanding your reply.
I have tried as you suggested, but I am afraid that it only works occasionally for me. Sometimes the KMix window is there after a boot and sometimes it isn't. Very confusing! I have done some investigating, but not got anywhere. So I will investigate further when a have a bit of time.
I remembered I had a similar (sorta) problem a few months ago. Below worked for me, but of course YMMV: Every time I used Kalarm to start alsaplayer for me, I'd wake up and see the big kmix thing slapped on the screen...every time. It would take over all my settings I had in alsamixergui and I had to redo everything. So, I went into ~/.kde/share/config/kmixrc and looked at things (I didn't really have a clue what I was doing, but...). I did find this though: startkdeRestore=true I figured, what the heck, and set it to startkdeRestore=false Then I used kalarm to test it...kmix did *not* pop up! Not sure if this will work after a restart, but it can't hurt to try it. -- "A nation can survive its fools and even the ambitious but it cannot survive treason from within.
