Just so I understand your response, are you stating that the login sound for a graphical user login should be _muted_? If so, this is relatively straightforward to test. Simply move /etc/udev/rules.d/85-alsa.rules, and reboot. Is the login sound audible? > Is there some way to be as smart/correct as the desktop mixer applets > with respect to level and toggle settings without requiring a user to be > logged in with the desktop up and running? Yes and no. Yes as in the current scheme uses /etc/init.d/alsa-utils (invoked from the above udev rule) to forcibly set as many matching mixer elements as possible. It does not require a user to login. No as in this scheme has its drawbacks as outlined in the original post. Thanks, Daniel Chen
