My Toshiba Satellite 1700-400 has a similar problem as it is unable to map/attach a port for USB and sound (and the stupid winmodem but this is only a minor concern for me). And yes, unfortunatly it also has no option to turn off this behaviour (no "PNP OS" switch). As for sound I've bought an OSS driver which works pretty well but not having USB is really a bad thing as this notebook has no serial port in it...
