Thanks.

Did you enable pulseaudio autospawn as documented in the Release Notes?[1]

Thanks.

I am having trouble pinpointing the issue here.

Can you show me the comparison you have done? As far as I know /etc/asound.conf
isn't included in any package. It is an optional sysadmin configuration file.

be certain there is a bug here.

Was /etc/asound.conf even present before the upgrade? I can't see any package
that would delete it.
