Every so often when I boot up, I get a message from iTunes (it loads on
startup) that the sound device isn't working properly. When I check my
sound devices in Control Panel, the usual device (SoundMAX Digital
Audio) doesn't show up on the first, Volume panel. So I reboot, and
things are normal. Why is this happening?

Try not letting iTunes start up with Windows.
 
Likely the hardware is a bit flaky, and not responding/initializing in
time following a cold start.
