After Googling for a solution for several hours, I finally stumbled upon the (not very well articulated) fix. Here it is:
1. Open Creative Console Launcher and switch to Audio Creation Mode.
2. Click the "save" icon in the top right hand corner and enter a description for your existing configuration.
3. Open the 'Snapshot" tab and click on the name you just entered.
4. Close the Console Launcher.
5. Open the Windows 7 Shutdown menu and click on Sleep.
6. Wake your machine from sleep.
7. Shut the machine completely down, and the X-Fi will output sound on your next and subsequent reboots.
I've now gone through half a dozen shutdowns and cold boots without losing sound. Worked for me, and will hopefully work for you.
