Bummer that you lost it.

I filed a bug on it in the Alsa-Devel Mantis system over the weekend.
If you can spend a minute and add your inputs that would be cool.
Here's the link:

https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=3911

If you think this is a Gentoo specific issue please let me know. If I
never start Alsa then I have no problem rebooting and since the init
script seems to have been written by Gentoo folks maybe it's not an
Alsa issue?

I wish you hadn't lost that fix! :-)

BTW - completely repeatable. I rebuilt the machine from scratch over
the weekend and got exactly the same results.

Cheers,
Mark
