My experience with USB speakers is that these do not start automatically in any ubuntu distro. The easiest solution to start these is to install pavucontrol (PulseAudio Volume Control) and under Configuration there switch other profiles off and switch USB audio device on.
The above statement mirrors my experience.

I use an M-Audio USB M-Track audio audio mixer & MIDI interface.

I install PulseAudio and pavucontrol for other reasons, but with them installed, I was able to configure the use of The M-Audio M-Track as my primary audio device, which it remembers over subsequent reboots.

With pulseaudio and pavucontrol installed, click on:

menu...Sound & Video...PulseAudio Volume Control

Then select your USB device (on the Output tab) as your primary (fall-back) device.

If you also use JACK (qjackctl), you'll also have to configure it (separately) to use your USB audio device.

Although the keyboard volume control (and task-bar volume control) work on an internal audio card, they have no effect on my USB audio (M-Audio M-Track) device. The device itself has volume controls that work for it. Other Ubuntu variants also behave this way.
