Not really.
Normally after a USB audio device is plugged in and configured in MPD Config it can be unplugged or turned off then plugged back in or turned on and Linux/ALSA will simply re-recognize the device after a brief period of time. The MPD configuration for USB audio devices is persistent and thus no need to redo MPD Config.
In your case it appears that for this particular audio device after turning it back on Linux/ALSA does not "see it". This would suggest some sort of hardware or USB cable issue or some type of incompatibility between the particular audio device and Linux/ALSA.
