Now I fixed all these on OBS multimedia:libs project.
The only question is the below one:

Do you mean to create a symlink

  /lib/systemd/system/alsasound.service -> alsa-restore.service

corresponding to /etc/init.d/alsasound, while keeping
/etc/init.d/alsasound as is?

If so, this will also belong to alsa-utils.rpm, I suppose.  Otherwise
we'll get a circular dependency.
