Title:
  Gnome session starts with maximum sound level

Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On Dell Inspiron 9300, Oneiric beta (all updates as of 2011/10/07) the
  "Ubuntu" Gnome session starts with sound volume to the max, producing
  a tremendously loud session opening jingle.

  Lowering volume, logging out and rebooting, the problem is back (set
  volume isn't remembered).

  This doesn't happen in KDE sessions on same machine.

  (As a safeguard I would request that no opening sound should ever be
  produced with a volume set higher than a reasonable default... Figure
  a laptop with good loudspeakers opening with a TREMENDOUSLY LOUD sound
  in a meeting room, train, whatever...)

  => Same issue also seen on another machine (Compaq Mini)
