It sounds like the systemd alsa service isn't enabled, or it's
missing.
I'm not that familiar with systemd nor the correct name of the
service file it uses on fedora, but usually something like:
systemctl enable/disable <service name>
is used. So try
systemctl enable alsa
If the name is wrong or the service file is missing it will output an
error.
