These inputs are used for FM/MIDI, CD-ROM and/or line in signals in most systems. Just very few (improperly designed) soundcards leave them unconnected which causes noise. Setting the initial volumes to zero is likely cause major confusion since it makes important signals inaudible in most systems.
