Does anyone know where to set the volume levels that appear for xfce4-mixer?

What's wrong with using xfce4-mixer for that? I do that myself and it
works absolutely flawlessly.

xfce4-mixer works great but the levels always reset after a reboot.  I
need a way to set them permanently.

Ok, I emerged alsa-utils and added alsasound to the boot runlevel. 
Running alsaconf tells me it can't find a sound card though, and now
all the levels start at zero.

ALSA is compiled into my kernel and has always worked great.

Is aumix an alternative to alsasound?  Would it be alright to remove
alsa-utils after emerging aumix?

Set the levels using alsamixer and then save it by using "alsactl store".

Frankly, I didn't find good audio player that works good with alsa, so
I decided to use oss emulation (I don't use alsa-utils; I think this
package isn't required)
