Re: Alsa needs reconfiguration after every reboot
I have a similar problem. After I restart my computer xmms says that there isn't a soundcard. So:
1. I have to execute ./snddevices
2. Then, run alsa-config
3. Then run alsamixer (to unmute)
And then I have sound again. Any suggestions to avoid having to go through this process?
Cheers,

Do you have alsa-base installed?
