Build a desktop file that has alsactl restore as it's command.
This particular install is a special, based on wheezy, but with a pinned
hard realtime (RTAI modified) kernel for running CNC machinery. You can
get the iso from linuxcnc.org.
The only audio thing running, according to htop, is kmix. I do not see
any telltale footprints from PA in the htop listing.
Aside from me not likeing kmix :P It does say that KDE is probably
running so autostart should get scanned at a session start. (KDE uses XDG)
However, if you are going headless or CLI, .profile may make more sense.
There should be a matching alsactl save as part of shutdown. I am not sure
that the user running alsactl restore has to be the same as the final
user, /etc/rc.local may work just as well.
It occures to me PA may be the thing that does this... and removing PA
for proaudio work is common.
Likely, for a machine tool targeted OS, PA would be considered overkill.
The other 3 machines running this install are lucky if they even have a
$0.29 (USD) speaker in them to make beeps. Likely not even heard if the
machinery is running.
I gave up finding little beepers a few years ago. I do have one I can put
in whatever machine I might need it in.
