Microphone and speakers always muted after reboot (Artix + Dinit)

I'm using Artix Linux with Plasma Dinit on an ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED (Alder Lake).
At every boot, both my microphone and speakers are muted by default — the mic LED stays orange until I manually unmute it.

This doesn't happen on other distros (Arch, Void, etc.). It seems PulseAudio doesn't save or restore the previous audio state between reboots.
I haven't found clear solutions on the internet. How could I fix this properly with Dinit?

Thank you

I noticed that /etc/machine-id changes every time I boot.
I suppose that is on purpose ? 
I commented the lines and it solved my audio problem
