alsa-restore.service requires the sound devices having been set up beforehand. However, systemd tends to start this service too early before the driver setup, which leads to the unsuccessful state restore.

For assuring the kernel driver setup before this service, add the dependency on sound.target.

Scratch this. There is already certain dependencies between this service and sound.target. It needs more investigation why it doesn't work as expected. Takashi
