/etc/asound.conf is the configuration for defining your own pcm or
controls.  /etc/asound.state is used to save and restore the status of
mixer and controls.
it's a bit confusing, because /etc/asound.conf was used for the
purpose of the present /etc/asound.state at the time of alsa 0.5.x.
anyway, if you have /etc/asound.state, better to remove it.

usually not.  a possible problem may be the files under
/usr/share/alsa directory...

anyway, can you once save your setting via "alsactl store" (as root)
and send me the generated /etc/asound.state to analyze the
configuration?
