Good point. Generally, video devices starts with an open volume when the user opens the video application. After closed, it turns off audio. In fact, for most applications, this is really not important, since default is also stored at the application itself. If we compare with a TV set, when people turn TV on, they expect to listen something.
About cx88, in the past, we were starting with a low volume, but people complained that this is bad, since they don't know for sure if the audio is working fine.
If we decide to change to start without volume, we will need to patch all other devices, since current V4L default is to start at maximum volume (except for msp3400, that starts at about 90% of max scale, due troubles with maximum volume on some boards).
