I don't have an audio issue with kernel 3.19.2-1 but I do have an ALSA 
MIDI issue -- module snd_seq_midi is no longer loaded automatically on 
my machine. I've been waiting for the next kernel update to see if the 
problem gets fixed.

Also note that the ALSA packages were updated to 1.0.29-1 around March 9.
