Another data point: I can use the PC Bamster by first removing the
snd_usb_audio module, then switching on the PC Bamster (which then stays
on), then reloading the usb_snd_audio module.

So the essential thing seems to be that the snd_usb_audio module must
not be loaded when switching the PC Bamster on, or it will get turned
off again. Loading it afterwards is fine (and of course required to
actually work with the device).
