I did:
sudo apt-get purge pulse-audio
wget http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/alsa/alsa-driver/alsa-driver-20091116.tar.bz2 (a snapshot after the patch was added)
tar -xzf alsa-driver-20091116.tar.bz2
cd alsa-driver
./configure --enable-dynamic-minors --without-oss --with-cards="hda-intel"
make
sudo make install
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
reboot
upon reboot I had to right click on the little sound applet, preferences, and unmute all of the various channels (go to each tab and unmute)
Now sound works. I occasionally get "jack noises" when sound starts playing (the kind of noise you would customarily get when you jack-in or jack out a mic or something).
use the gnome-alsa-mixer (per: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro5-5/Karmic) to enable the headphone jack (IEC958/IEC958 Default PCM). I'm not sure what combination of dinking with the controls on that caused it to finally stop broadcasting on both headphone and speakers when I have the headphones plugged in)
I have a MBP 5,2....
