Just did a fresh install of Ubuntu MATE 20.04 LTS this week and I can confirm this is still a problem.
I can go into Sound Settings - Sound Effects Tab and turn up the Alert Volume slider, I can hear the laert beep, but the volume is not changed no matter where the slider is set, and as soon as I close the Sound Settings window, the volume slider is reset to 0.
In fact, no sound settings are being saved after a reboot, logout, or resume from suspend or hibernate.
Every time I reboot, login, or resume from suspend, I have to manually go into sound settings and re-select the (HDMI 2) output of my video card as the source.. for some reason it keeps defaulting back to HDMI 1.
I have the on-board sound disabled in the bios, and it no longer shows up in the OS as a source, only my video card shows up as an audio source.
I am using a Nvidia GT 1030 card, running the latest tested proprietary driver (metapackage from nvidia-driver-470).
