** Description changed:

  I am using beta edition of Ubuntu 11.10,with lightdm 0.9.3-0ubuntu8,and unity 4.12.0-0ubuntu2,
  There is a new feature in Display Manager(well,I didn't notice it in gdm,but it might have been there as well),That you can mute the sound so that login sound wont play(This option exists in the top of the lightdm login page,when you turn on ubuntu and load it)However,Login sound will still play and sound settings will change regardless of what you choose.
  I should add that,this happens only after a reboot or shutdown,boot again,and not when you logout and login again
  
- Desired solution:
- - Any changes made to the volume control in the Unity Greeter should carry through to the logged in session and vice versa.  
- - For example, if a user changes or mutes the volume in the Unity Greeter, when they are logged in to their session this value should be carried over
- - The other way around is also true, if a user changes or mutes the volume in their session, when they log out this value should be displayed in the greeter.
- - Sound settings are stored individually on a per user account basis.  The sound settings displayed in the greeter should change in line with the currently focused user account.  So for example User A is currently focused and has has volume at 100%. If the focus in the greeter is changed to User B (who has volume muted), the sound indicator should change to display the muted state.
+ <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sound#Volume>: "Sound volume should also be
+ independent of which user — or whether any user — is logged in. This
+ way, if you mute or turn down sound at the login screen, you will not be
+ surprised or frustrated by sound playing loudly after you log in."
