Problem with audio playback in mplayer

Hi,
I just spent half an hour to find out why movie and audio files would
playback with extremely low volume levels on my nanonote.
Even tried all of mplayer's audio filters + re-encoding my material with
higher volume levels.
Turns out that the master volume is muted by default, which doesn't
actuallly *mute* audio, but merely reduces the volume a lot. Also the
master volume level seems to be ignored in that case.
The solution is to manually run 'alsamixer', select the <Master> slider,
and press 'm'. Uhh. What about putting audio into a usable
configuration at boot time?
Seems that Gmu works around the issue itself unmuting audio as required?
cheers,
David
