Todd,
Mike Meyer just might have the answer. Give this a try.
From Mike Meyer:
It
should also check for the arguments "start" and "stop" so it can be
used at system startup and system shutdown time. Here's a trivial
example:
#!/bin/sh
MIXERSTATE=/var/db/mixer-state
case $1 in
start)
[ -r $MIXERSTATE ] && /usr/sbin/mixer `cat $MIXERSTATE` > /dev/null
;;
stop)
/usr/sbin/mixer -s > $MIXERSTATE
;;
*)
echo "usage: `basename $0` {start|stop}" >&2
exit 64
;;
esac
