What hack you mean ? I have exactly same VAIO and sound for me works
without any hacks, may be  I am missing anything ? So I've done 'make world'
for 4.1-STABLE a couple of days ago. But on 4.1-R all works fine too.

I have one small problem with APM, sometimes (not always) when resuming after sleep
something not good with system timers - ascpu don't show any load,
systat in vmstat mode says 'The alternate system clock has died!'

After awaken from hybirnation all works fine.
