I found a web page from what appears to be a Linux marketing company, which had images of the default sound settings from KDE 3 in Ubuntu 8.10. On the TCC/Sound & Multimedia/Sound System Configure screen, the only differences vs the KDE 3/Ubuntu screenshots, were that Networked Sound was not checked and the Auto-Suspend setting was on 60 seconds (vs the 1 second default in PCLinuxOS TDE Mini). I changed the Skip Prevention Sound Buffer back to the 232 milliseconds default and made the other changes. So far, at every boot (warm or cold), the startup sound has played each time on my main desktop. I am going to make the same changes on my other desktop, to see how it goes on that, it has a somewhat slower CPU than what's in the main system. To be continued... :)
