Until this gets fixed, here's a workaround for Xubuntu. If someone could write up an equivalent for Ubuntu that'd be dandy.

- Go to Settings -> Sessions and Startup -> Application Autostart tab
- Click the Add button.
- Enter whatever Name and Description you want.
- For command enter:
   /bin/bash -c "sleep 2; pactl set-sink-volume alsa_output.usb-Burr-Brown_from_TI_USB_Audio_CODEC-00-CODEC.iec958-stereo 10%; notify-send \"Volume set to 10%\""

Replace alsa_output.usb-Burr-Brown_from_TI_USB_Audio_CODEC-00-CODEC.iec958-stereo with whatever your sound sink is, find it by running "pactl list sinks" in a terminal. Note that I set my volume to 10%, and sent a "notify-send" message about it to remind myself. Change either of these if you like.
