Todd,

Mike Meyer just might have the answer. Give this a try.

From Mike Meyer:

It
should also check for the arguments "start" and "stop" so it can be
used at system startup and system shutdown time. Here's a trivial
example:

#!/bin/sh

MIXERSTATE=/var/db/mixer-state

case $1 in
start)
    [ -r $MIXERSTATE ] && /usr/sbin/mixer `cat $MIXERSTATE` > /dev/null
    ;;
stop)
    /usr/sbin/mixer -s > $MIXERSTATE
    ;;
*)
    echo "usage: `basename $0` {start|stop}" >&2
    exit 64
    ;;
esac
