I've been doing lots of loading and unloading of sound modules recently,
trying to get my via8233 to sound like it should.  The solution I've
just come up with for storing and restoring sound levels has been to
actually add calls to alsactl from /etc/modules.conf, whenever the
soundcard driver is loaded or unloaded, like:

post-install snd-via82xx /usr/sbin/alsactl restore
pre-remove snd-via82xx /usr/sbin/alsactl store

If anyone knows why I shouldn't be doing this (I'm not a huge expert on
modules and they're care and feeding), I'd love to hear it.  But I've
found this to be more helpful than loading on boot.

Just my 2 cents,
