nearly the same here. I am running debian unstable on an IBM R50P. I
decided to use 2.6.11.7 and there was silence.
A few days later I tried 2.6.11.8 and everything was OK again.
I was not able to track down the error. The system "thinks" to play the
sound (according to the analyzer in xmms) so it seemes to be a problem
with the mixer.
Some digging in the dark:
Perhaps it has something to do with the kernel-version and the
alsa-version in unstable - did you try an upgrate?
Another guess is kernel-version versus gcc-version - again: try upgrade
and then rebuild the kernel.
