AFAIK, there is no /etc/rc.d/init.d/sound on RH 6.x.  Sound is started by
/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit instead.  If you want your mixer settings to be
saved, it may be a question of running Gnome or KDE's mixer application
and selecting the option that says something to the effect of "restore
mixer settings" or something like that.  

Alternatively, if you're running Gnome or KDE, you may also have a sound
section of your "control panel" application.  Check that out too.
