Please open a Terminal and use `alsamixer' to adjust those volumes.

Press 'm' to unmute/mute; use the left and right arrow keys to scroll
through the mixer elements; use the up and down arrows to adjust
volumes (if applicable).

The problem is that system is not saving the settings I have done to alsamixer and at every new start up I have to unmute and increase value of "MASTER M"
