[Bug 1799580] Re: Settings made by qasmixer are lost on next reboot

 

I noticed the same bug affecting me on 3 installs:

1. Ubuntu Budgie 20.04 with Ubuntu Studio tools. Desktop, USB audio interface.
2. Ubuntu Budgie 20.04 with Ubuntu Studio tools. Laptop, Internal Audio card.
3. Ubuntu Studio 20.10 daily. Desktop, USB audio interface.

I do not think the issue is specifically of QASmixer. I tried to
manipulate ALSA volume settings using alsamixer and and alsactl store,
both with normal user and using sudo. Volume settings persist in the
session, if I close and reopen QASmixer or alsamixer, but all volume
settings are reset on reboot.

Title:
  Settings made by qasmixer are lost on next reboot

Status in alsa-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I use qasmixer to set the "Synth" volume to full, on my SoundBlaster
  Live sound-card.

  On prior levels of Ubuntu (through 18.04), any settings I make are
  preserved over reboots.

  On the latest level of Ubuntu (18.10) the settings are effective only
  as long as the system is running.  The next time I reboot, the
  settings are gone, and I have to use qasmixer to set them all over
  again.

  I expected the settings made by qasmixer to be preserved on the next
  reboot, as with past levels of Ubuntu.

  The settings made by qasmixer are not preserved over a reboot on
  Ubuntu 18.10.
