In the case that no sound settings are saved, then alsa would initialize the mixer settings from its defaults. If the default means your hardware doesn't work, then it would be a matter of working with alsa upstrea and your distro to make sure it does work. If mixer settings have been saved, then they would be copied into the initramfs. As for speech-dispatcher for the initramfs, I have thought about that more and think there would need to be some re-architecting in the code to allow for a cut down build for use in an initramfs. It is certainly worth thinking about going forward though.
