Set the desired default settings for the card on one system and then do a 
"alsactl store" once. This will create an /etc/asound.state file (or a file 
you specify with the -f parameter) which you can restore from with "alsactl 
restore" which you'd do from an init script (or an "install" trigger from 
modprobe.conf if you have things modular and insist on it).

Taking that file and installing that onto the customers's machine would 
provide him with your tweaked settings.
