+For clarity the bug itself is in sound-scripts, but the new problem was
+exposed by a fix in module-init-tools on x86_64 that prevents the
+snd-usb-audio module being loaded when the alsa sysvinit script has not
+been run... This would have always been a problem on systemd+i586.
+
+I'll look into tidying up the sound-scripts stuff shortly.

+So pulseaudio should have been running fine, so please keep it enabled.
+And yes, sometimes a reboot is required.
+
+The problem is PA probably would have been showing a Dummy Output rather
+than your real h/w
+
+Please post the output of "systemd-loginctl" after booting with systemd
+and logging in.
