If restarted manually, by deleting /run/qubes/guid-* and running qvm-start-gui --all, then audio doesn't work since pacat-simple-vchan seems to hang before connecting to PulseAudio.
This issue is present also on 3.2. Can be workarounded by reloading module-vchan-sink in the VM:
pacat unload-module module-vchan-sink
pacat load-module module-vchan-sink
GUI daemons don't restart automatically.
This is a duplicate of #3147

Indeed, reloading module-vchan-sink now seems to work for me.
It's a bit strange because I tried doing exactly that before filing the bug and it didn't seem to work, but maybe I had the system in a somewhat strange state as I was trying a bunch of things (perhaps pacat-simple-vchan not running or no audio devices)

Qubes OS version:
R4.0-rc2
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Expected behavior:
All applications reappear and audio works in VMs since GUI daemons are restarted.
Actual behavior:
GUI daemons don't restart automatically.
If restarted manually, by deleting /run/qubes/guid-* and running qvm-start-gui --all, then audio doesn't work since pacat-simple-vchan seems to hang before connecting to PulseAudio.
