Comment 125 for bug 190754

I just booted with the 2.6.24-17 kernel, and there's no audio at all. In fact, there's no /proc/asound, so i can't even list the contents of /proc/asound/cards. Similarly, the Device selectbox in System>Preferences>Sound is empty.

Also, I just went to my other laptop (also clean hardy install, but different machine) using the default generic kernel and saw that there's no stuttering/pops with the internal audio card no matter what I do. The other machine is a Thinkpad T60, Core 2 duo, ATI mobility radeon x1300 (fglrx), 1.5GB RAM. I'll try connecting it to the USB card and see what happens.
