Heh.  The catalyst for my (rather more humble) approach to that was the
issue of being in a meeting, where I didn't really want to be disruptive
(at least, not because my laptop was making loud noises):

localhost(4.9-S)[1] cat /usr/local/etc/rc.d/000.shhh.sh 
#! /bin/sh

/usr/sbin/mixer vol 25

exit 0
localhost(4.9-S)[2] 


Peace,
