It's a known problem with VIA codecs, and the fix was already merged in 4.2-rc1, the commit 735c75cf4d434862e38c01dcfb2ce8d2fcb9035f. The next stable 4.1.x kernel should contain the fix.

Upgraded to

uname -rm 4.1.2-1.g5ccacb4-desktop x86_64

Fyi, the problem remains unchanged. To get sound, a physical unplug/replug is required.
