Package: kmix
Version: 4:3.5.9-2
Severity: important

I am using Debian Lenny, kernel 2.6.24, KDE 3.5.9 with all the updates to date. The problem in KMix
is that it doesn't save the volume level, although the volume is always at maximum (I set it with
alsamixer). The volume is showed always at 0%, and I can't change it using any of the KMix controls
like PCM, Front or Master. Changing volume from inside applications works, and the same is for
alsamixer.

I noticed that if I compile from source the alsa drivers from the official website, KMix starts to
work again, so I'm thinking it's probably a configuration file not configured properly, or something
similar. As far as I remember, I encountered this problem in alsa 1.0.14 for the first time (but
maybe it's just because I bought a new motherboard). I wasn't sure whether I should report this bug
for a KDE package rather than alsa, since the problem actually seems to be in some ALSA config.

Anyway, here are my hardware specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo 1.8GHz
1 GB DDRAM2
Motherboard Asus P5B-E ICH8R (I think it uses the hda-intel driver for sound)

It seems related to outdated kernel.
