Problem: How do I save user set volume level between logon sessions? Windows non-persistent desktop do not maintain the same registry key for sound device settings.
Explanation: The UID of the sound device is changed each time a new desktop is provisioned, preventing ProfileUnity from anticipating the correct key to restore to maintain user set volume levels.
Resolution:
ProfileDisk not in use:
Add Registry rule to ProfileUnity configuration:
- Description: Enable Saving of Volume Level
- Action: Add Value
- Hive: HKEY_CURRENT_USER
- Key: Software\Liquidware Labs\ProfileUnity
- Type: REG_SZ
- Value: EnableFeature
- Data: 2097152
:
1) Add the 'Volume Control Settings - 6.5' rule to your existing configuration.
- Name: Volume Control
- Registry Rules: Merge Tree HKCU Control Panel\Sound

3) Save and update your ini file in you path specified in assigned GPO (\\Domain\netlogon\profileunity)
