Dell Inspiron 7537 - Sound only works after resuming from suspend

Hello,

So my sound does not work after boot, only once I resume from suspend. So, once I turn on my computer, and I load sound, nothing work (everything is unmuted in Alsa) - then if I suspend my computer and resume - the sound works every time.

I use Alsa and here is my amixer output (before and after suspend is the same) :

eric@archlinux ~> amixer
Simple mixer control 'Master',0
  Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined
  Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
  Limits: Playback 0 - 65536
  Mono:
  Front Left: Playback 5358 [8%] [off]
  Front Right: Playback 5358 [8%] [off]
Simple mixer control 'Capture',0
  Capabilities: cvolume cswitch cswitch-joined
  Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right
  Limits: Capture 0 - 65536
  Front Left: Capture 11003 [17%] [on]
  Front Right: Capture 11003 [17%] [on]

What gets rebooted when I do a suspend, but not when I reboot? Does not seem to make sense to me.

Thanks.

Is there any additional information I can include to help figure this out?
