Definitely not a new chip...I built this machine in 2010, and It didn't have such problems with lenny, squeeze, or wheezy, 
just now with jessie, probably another thing systemd screwed up?
Sorry for top posting but the gmx web mail isn' t letting me write beneath the message without marking my response as part of the prior msg to which I am replying.
I'm using webmail from a livecd, because another thing that' s  been Fscked on this Jessie system is I can never simply reboot, without using a live cd to check my disk with gparted several times, which I'm doing again now...Ridiculous...When did "stable" stop meaning "stable" and start meaning "useless"?

yes it could be - some recent audio chips support power save - it could be
that if not used for some time it goes into power save and does not wake up
again.
I think this is configurable in the bios, or per driver option(s). Check the
manual for your chip and driver

ex: Documentation/sound/alsa/powersave.txt
