I have the same problem (but thanks to the gentoo's alsasound script the mixer values are saved and restored without any problem)

I'll suggest to report this upstream to http://bugs.kde.org, I've made a search but there are not bugreports on this problem.

[Comment 2 Gregorio Guidi (RETIRED) 2004-12-23 07:29:54 UTC]

There's this one now:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=95371

but it seems more like a driver alsa/oss driver issue to me...
