Yes if you reboot the pi while the USB DAC is off the startup process will fall back to HDMI after the "Device ready wait" has expired. The default wait period is 1 min but can be set to 2 or 3 mins.
In your post 33 describing the steps you stated "1. RPI always on forever" which is the scenario I tested.

I think there is another scenario where at some time after the fallback to HDMI has occurred, the USB Audio device is turned on or plugged back in and rather than having to open Audio Config and manually set the Output device it is automatically set when the USB Audio device is detected. Its could be doable but I'm not sure how much work is involved.
