Please post the output of:

dpkg -l | grep -E "(alsa|asound)"

Hmm, did you logged in on a vt (i.e. <Alt> <F2> and checked sound?
I assume that you have an alsa or udev config somewhere in /etc which
prevents alsa to start. Could you please rebuild your initrd.img and
try rebooting?

Please post the output of:
# journalctl | grep -E "(sound|alsa)"

$ cat /proc/version
would be of my interest as well.

Elimar, who will think about it......
