Bug Description

One of my chief complaints if with my current setup (Kubuntu x64) is that sometimes I have my volume up for watching movies and such before shutting down at night. then when I go to turn on my PC I just KNOW that the login sound is going to blare full volume, waking the baby and knocking me out of my chair...

Once I get fully logged in (after getting back in my chair) I can use the keyboard volume controls, but by then it's too late... I woke the baby.

WHY can't the volume controls be active BEFORE the Logon?
