Just (WA)guesses. alsa-utils has a few systemd services: /lib/systemd/system/alsa-restore.service /lib/systemd/system/alsa-store.service /lib/systemd/system/basic.target.wants/alsa-restore.service /lib/systemd/system/shutdown.target.wants/alsa-store.service Looking at the contents I don't see anything out of the ordinary, but then I'm not very familiar with how systemd works either. So indeed it might be a problem with how systemd is executing it, and maybe this materialises itself on my hardware. I'll take a closer look tomorrow. Cheers, -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
