Description Kim Pedersen 2005-01-21 09:25:22 UTC

After installing Alsa and starting it, it must be mentioned that alsa must be restarted (if the configuration worked), orelse the configuration will not be saved. Not restarting leeds to the file /etc/asound.state not be saved(created).

SpankY is correct, the changes are saved when you shut down your system.
