A bit more user-experience info here: I have several accounts and it auto-boots into one on startup, lets call user1.
The volume control is set to 10% and muted if: - If the box is shutdown using the shutdown menu option from this user (user1) - If I login (user GUI menu) as second user (user2) then go back to user1's session I noticed user2's volume settings are normally saved, non-muted and intro music is heard. I recall user1's intro music used to sound too but no longer since always muted. The volume settings for user1 are maintained if I issue a cmd-line shutdown and on subsequent reboot the volume settings are as I left them for user1. Neither user1 or 2 are 'admin' users. user1 has very restrictive access to the computer resources (as per GUI settings for users). There seems to be some 'bleeding' between user sessions and switching between them... as user1 is used to run xbox-media-centre and not much else... user2 is the user allowed to ftp new stuff to the media-station which is done occasionally. user1 auto-boots up when the machine is started and launches XBMC. -- sound volume always resets to 100% after reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204536 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
