"alsactl restore" does not load the driver state

[GitHub issues - opened <github@alsa-project.org>]

alsa-project/alsa-utils issue #229 was opened from YuGiOhJCJ:

Hello,

When I type "alsactl restore", it does not load the driver state.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a first terminal dedicated to alsa-mixer
2. Open a second terminal where you will type the following commands
3. In the first terminal, press F4, set the audio volume for capture to 40
4. In the second terminal, type "sudo alsactl store" in order to save the driver state to /var/lib/alsa/asound.state
5. In the first terminal, set the audio volume for capture to 35
6. In the second terminal, type "sudo alsactl restore" in order to load the driver state to /var/lib/alsa/asound.state

Expected results: I should see in the first terminal that the audio volume for capture is restored to 40.

Current results: I see in the first terminal that the audio volume for capture is not restored to 40. It is still set to 35!

How to fix that please?

Thank you.
Best regards.
