alsa mixer settings -- how to save?

[alsh]

Basically the question is the title... how do I save my alsamixer settings so everytime I boot I dont have to pump all the little sliders up to the levels I like?

[Hayl]

gentoo has a script that does this automatically.

basically it just does this.

for shutdown (save settings):

/usr/sbin/alsactl -f /etc/asound.state store

for startup (restore settings):

/usr/sbin/alsactl -f /etc/asound.state restore
