Reset alsamixer settings

[riksweeney]

Hi,

I added a .asoundrc file to my home and now they're permanently stored in my alsamixer, and there are quite a lot of them. I've deleted the .asoundrc file but they're still in the alsamixer after I reboot. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Thanks

Richard
