Description Toralf Förster gentoo-dev 2007-04-25 18:41:22 UTC
During boot alsa complains about this missing file, it is located under /etc and not under  /var/lib/alsa/, see also http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-555303-highlight-asound+state.html

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Massimo Burcheri 2007-04-26 07:48:06 UTC
Like I said in the forum this command has to create the file first, if volume state isn't stored at halt:

alsactl -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state store

Yes, looks like the file moved location and if you weren't letting the initscript save state on shutdown, you might have been bitten by this. Sorry for any inconvenience.
