I am using this when I start up Pd:****
[loadbang]****
|****
[alsactl -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state restore SB(****
|****
[shell]****
First you need to store the mixer settings with this of course:****
[alsactl -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state store SB(****
|****
[shell]****
"SB" at the end is the name of the onboard Realtek sound card. You might have to change that according to the name in /proc/asound/cards or leave it blank if it works.****

i once wrote an [amixer] external (to be found in****
