Sure, please find it attached. I was also considering adding something 
under /var as well, but I didn't do that, because I think it will fall 
back to an "alsactl init" in that case (right?), so it still makes some 
sense to run alsactl without /var.

Yes, /var contents is not mandatory. Thanks, I applied it to the
alsa-utils repository.

IMO, it's better to use @mydatadir@ instead of @datadir@ here and...

... here.  Otherwise it may be confusing.

Other than that, the change looks good to me.

Jaroslav, could you fix up quickly in your side?

Patch

From 09a4abb5560448eb434a33fc237d578e14666940 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: David Henningsson <david.henningsson@canonical.com>

Subject: [PATCH] alsactl: Do not run udev rule before datadir/sbindir are both
 mounted

Sometimes 90-alsa-restore.rules is run before /usr is mounted,
and alsactl restore depends on /usr/share/alsa being present.

If /usr/share/alsa is not present, we're so early in the boot
process that alsa-restore.service (or upstart equivalent) will
run later on.
