This is a long shot, but it might be that alsa has sorted your sound devices in a different order on boot. It sounds like it thinks your acpi might be a sound device. Try aplay -l to see if it has your actual sound device in position 0. Everything looks like it, but ... Also try booting to an older kernel (from before the problem), if you have one. Maybe check the install date of alsa-lib if it is possible? Should be in the modification time for /usr/lib[64]/libasound*.
