I saw some ess updates go past on a cvsup of a new -stable machine at
work, so cvsuped my laptop too in the hope that some of this was fixed.

Vain hope, in fact it's gotten even more broken.

I can't get clean sound out of my laptop at all now :/ it's distorted
and crackled playing with xmms (which used to work) and the mixer
levels change briefly during a resume to un-mute the microphone to
give me nasty feedback noise :/

*sigh*
