Deinitely a kludge. I have the following in /etc/modprobe.conf. I'm
using the intel8x0 alsa module.
# Install the module and restore sound settings
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0 &&
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore
# Save the current sound settings and unload the module
remove snd-intel8x0 /usr/sbin/alsactl store && /sbin/modprobe -r
--ignore-remove snd-intel8x0
Make sure to change the intel8x0 to your sound module and take out the
extra line break when putting them in modprobe.conf.
