If you can find how to do it in CLI, you could add a startup command to run at login to switch it lower.

Put the command into /etc/rc.local file type:

sudo nano /etc/rc.local

before the "exit 0" row

if not works please made a shell script and recall it form the starting applications of your user session...

Can you help with this problem?
