I have the same problem. After the upgrade and reboot, sound was muted.
When I unmuted it, then the only sound that could play was a low
crackling sound. Also, when I shutdown, the shutdown process hangs while
trying to halt ALSA.

I was able to get my sound playing again by commenting out the code that
starts pulse-session in the file (below). I'm not familiar with
pulseaudio, so I don't know if disabling it is going to break something
else for me.

/etc/X11/Xsession.d/70pulseaudio

# If we are loading a GNOME session, load pulseaudio.

#if [ "$BASESTARTUP" = gnome-session -o \
#       \( "$BASESTARTUP" = x-session-manager -a \
#       "`readlink /etc/alternatives/x-session-manager`" = \
#               /usr/bin/gnome-session \) ]; then
#  STARTUP="/usr/bin/pulse-session $STARTUP"
#fi
