Bug Description
After recent updates I was not getting any sound output from my laptop. After some searching I found that computer started with alsa outputs (headphones, front) muted.
To fix it I had to do alsamixer -Dhw:0 and unmute anything needing unmute. After restart the reset to muted tho.
From #ubuntu+1 channel, im not the only one with this issue.
My audio hardware is
aplay -l

Very problematic issue for a user, IMHO.

The problem is somewhere in alsactl. store/restore behaves funny. Only after several attempts was previously stored state restored. First try restored the muted state, then after some stores the values were stored and finally the mute switch values stayed in place too.
