I agree, this value is bogus. I just fixed the code to return exit code 99 as described in init/00main:

What could I do? Thanks for helping me, if you need more information, simply ask me for it :-)
There are two ways to fix this issue for your distro:
- modify the script which calls alsactl and add a check for code 99 (it may ignore this exit code) - assuming that patch above is applied
- change init/00main - EXIT="99" line to EXIT="0"
But from your gentoo bug, I guess that your system don't save the last soundcard state to /var/lib/alsa/asound.state correctly - it's looks like a bug in the init scripts for your distro.
Or it might be totaly different issue - could you send me your /var/lib/alsa/asound.state file and file test.state generated using 'alsactl -f test.state store' command?
JaroslavYes, of course :-)
The files look good. The question is why the initialization is called when a default state already exists (it shouldn't).
Does 'alsactl -f test.state restore' show some messages? Use test.state file you sent me.
