Adding sleep 10 in /etc/rc.local before alsactl restore does not help. Contrary to what I said in my previous email in my last try running in terminal "sudo alsactl restore" did not manage to restore the mixer settings (even though there were no warnings or error messages) but "alsactl restore" (no sudo) did.
