I have a Trust SC-5500p USB Sound Card and the same Problem (14.04 64bit). I even had to set default-sample-channels = 6 in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf in order to get the rear speakers and Subwoofer working (with 12.04 this worked out of the box), but that is another probem.
Every time I reboot, the volume is set to 100%, although the applet shows the volume level from before boot and when I hit a mediakey for volume, this is where is continues. Example: I have the volume at 20%, reboot, everything will now play at 100% volume but the indicator shows 20% volume. When I hit "volume-up"- Mediakey now, the volume is set to ~25%. I already tried to circumvent this problem with setting "amixer -D pulse sset Master 25%" in .profile. but this is only setting the indicator to 25%, sound will still play at 100% until I hit a volume key or set the volume by mouse. Anybody know if you can set the soundvolume via pulseaudio? Relevant pulseaudio documentation is kinda hard to find in the net...
