Well, the behavior you describe does not reproduce on any of my test 
systems, so you will have to come up with a list of hardware,

dmesg

optput will do; a printout of

cat /etc/modules.conf

a listing

of the output of lspcidrake,

at a minimum.

Some folks have reported effectiveness with linking (using ln -s) some 
devices to /dev/audio and /dev/dsp and /dev/mixer in /etc/rc.local, just 
prior to the last line, but until I see your configuration, I have no 
idea how to advise you.

It may be also that your sound is double-loaded and the excess one, 
which works is blown away in the configuration by a conflict resolution 
at shutdown.  chkconfig --del alsa could be helpful in such cases.

But with so little information, who can say?

So if you want information, be prepared to give some.
