Comment 2 for bug 454265

An alsa-utils package has been uploaded to the karmic queue which replaces the init script with an upstart job, citing this bug.

It also reverts the changes to the init script from the last two uploads - which should be sufficient to fix the problem with mixer state not being saved.

So I'm rejecting the upload out of the queue. Now is not the time to be converting additional services from sysvinit to upstart - particularly when that isn't needed in order to fix a bug, as is the case here.
