I'm not familiar with Gnome in common or gnome-volume-control
in detail, but maybe GVC is buggy or there have been changes
in ALSA that make GVC incompatible.

You do not need the alsa-driver-package, because the drivers
are now in the kernel. But after the kernel update, did you
also update alsa-lib and optionally - if installed -
alsa-utils? I recommend to do so to avoid incompatibilities.
