Hy,

For example, my desktop machine I reported an another soundcard volume 
meter related bug with affected the Lucid branch awailable alsa-utils 
package in 2010 I think, look following bugreport:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/564472

I think my other reported bug are fixed with Maverick repository, but 
not applied the fix with Lucid branch for alsa-utils package.
I downloading now an Oneiric system to verify the newest Ubuntu release 
producing my desktop machine equals issue my motherboard sound card or 
not with master volume meter related.
Not have an audio volume meter related metabug with possible reporting 
this type issues?

Attila

Bug description:
  Dear Developers,

  In Ubuntu 10.04.3 release if an user booted with the live CD, default the live system with following volum,e meters are default muted, I copyed amixer names:
  'Front',0
  'Surround',0
  'Center',0
  'LFE',0
  If I launch with GNOME Volume Control preference tool, mincreasing the output slider and uncheck the mute checkbox, the problem is resolved.
  Of course, this problem fixing is important for a11y related, because a screen reader user is important to default hear the screen reader audio output.
  I don't no yet this problem are present with newest Ubuntu releases this soundcard chipset, and I not often possible to use this machine with testing this problem.

  I attaching two amixer text file, first file is showing the original
  result, second shoving the results after I unchecked the mute checkbox
  with GNOME Volume Control preference tool.

  To easyest your work, I doed a diff output with two text file with diff -u command, see the results:
