When first waking up from sleeping, master volume is at maximum level

[Robert]

Using Lucid Xubuntu, the master volume is at maximum whenever the laptop (Lenovo ThinkPad R61i) wakes up from sleeping. (Note that this is a change from previous releases where the master volume was usually muted when first booting up.)

Let me revise that: the master volume is at maximum whenever the laptop (Lenovo ThinkPad R61i) wakes up from sleeping. Usually when booting up or logging in, the sound is muted.

Thank you for the additional information. Can you tell us if this was a new installation of Xubuntu 10.04 or an upgrade from xubuntu 9.10 or 8.04?

It was originally an upgrade, but I had to re-install from scratch. Same
problem.
