Gah - okay I see what the problem is - I have the wrong rpms installed,
and they don't have that script - must exclude from dag repo...sorry.

- replace the dev.d script with a program that calls alsactl to
  restore the volume if there is a saved config, and just unmutes
  the playback channels if there isn't one (#132575)

happen at modprobe time anyway?

install snd-via82xx /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-via82xx
&& /usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
