I started to get this problem when I put in a new soundcard. The new soundcard is "Asus Xonar DX".
The alsa volumes are restored as they should but pulse volume is set to like 100% but the slider in "ubuntu/unity 12.04" is set to what is was before reboot. Just changing the slider a little bit sets the correct voume to pulseserver. I have also this issue in KDE. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/598308 Title: Volume at login set to Maximum To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/598308/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
