Alsa & 1818VSL problems

[retnev]

After alsa and 1818vsl worked flawlessly together it acted up and the last month I get no daylight out of them.

If I start alsa I get the following errors.
How do I resolve this ?
(*I tried alsa ug but it is a dead dead duck and crickets *)

It ended up to be a SystemD problem.

Once SystemD was uninstalled it started working again.
