ALSA has a certain protocol it follows when doing suspend/resume of
sound cards. PA follows that pretty closely these days. Also, we
didn't have any changes in the suspend logic between .15 and .17

This suggests that your driver does not survive the suspend/resume due
to some reason. Is it possible that you also updated the kernel at the
same time as updating PA?
