Well, setting up to capture a kernel crash that you're not getting would seem 
like a pointless exercise. 

To summarize.  The problem you're having is with pnmixer.  You have 4 systems 
configured, software wise, the same and only one system has this problem.  The 
problem presents itself coming out of hibernate as well as on initial boot.  
However, when you then login or restart pnmixer from the command line it loads 
and works fine the whole time you remain logged in, don't hibernate, and don't 
reboot.

This, to me, suggests potential race condition with the some module and 
hardware initiation.  In an attempt to narrow down the issue I suggested the 
following in another message....

I notice you've 2 Audio devices.

00:03.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor 
HD Audio Controller (rev 06)
and
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset High 
Definition Audio Controller (rev 05)

Is it possible to disable them separately in the BIOS to see if that makes any 
difference?

Also, recall I don't use openbox, would it be possible to delay the starting of 
pnmixer by using a user specific autostart instead of the system-wide file 
you're currently using?

I would also try creating a new user and testing to make sure it isn't specific 
to one user.

Certainly this is an annoyance....but not a fatal problem as the workaround is 
to manually start pnmixer.  Should none of the above get you any closer to a 
cause I would certainly file a bugzilla against pnmixer and see what happens. 

You may also want to consider using a different mixer such as the xfce4-mixer.
