I was able to solve this issue on karmic beta via other means...

I found a K50alsa-utils symlink to /etc/init.d/alsa-utils in /etc/rc0.d/ and /etc/rc6.d/ . Once I redirected those symlinks to an empty file, my sound settings are correctly restored throughout the boot and login process.

Not sure how those rc*.d symlinks got created in my karmic install... isnt rc*.d a kde thing? If so, it was probably when I installed amarok14, amarok 2.2, or amarok-nightly and its dependencies.

HTH, I struggled with this throughout my use of Jaunty, but its fixed permanently now.
