Expected behavior

Have pci device removed from dom0 and pass-through sys-audio on boot as well as all Bluetooth controller (but not possible by default. Notes should be added in sys-audio notes)

Actual behavior

Audio still on dom0 unless sys-audio manually started. More troubleshooting needed, will comment later

Disp-sys-audio not configured to start automatically on boot

That is true. As of now, it is necessary to restart pipewire on the client for sys-audio to work, to solve this, it depends on upstream changes:

• Dynamic audiovm switching QubesOS/qubes-issues#8975

In the future, it won't be necessary and it won't need to autostart, if you need audio, you just start the qube and the audio will work, or streaming audio will make in some way qrexec trigger the audiovm to be started.

Do you have strong reasons why it should be the default state create.sls instead of a new optional state autostart.sls?

Nope.
