where do mixer settings come from?
I'm running a server with three terminals. A maximum of four people can be
running KDE on the server at the same time.
I'm having irritating mixer problems with my emu10k1. I log in, the mixer is
borked horribly. I fix it by hand using my hacked KAMix (the only mixer
program I've found that can actually control everything on the emu10k1
reliably.)
All is good with the world until someone else logs in. Then the mixer gets
borked again when that user's settings get read; since they're all in the
audio group. It turns on some useless options that cut off all sound, and
screws up things all over the place. I have to set it right by hand every
time.
I'd like to stop that from happening. Quit loading whatever bit of their
session is causing this. I figure it's their session. We don't run artsd,
and everyone has all KDE sounds disabled.
(My session too, for that matter. Though I will probably still have to set
everything up by hand at least once per fresh login. I've tried
saving/restoring mixer settings with everything I could scrounge up that
claimed to be able to do that, and none of them ever get all the obscure
little stuff right. This mixer is an enormous PITA to deal with.)
