This looks like the "lazy BIOS" problem, where the BIOS doesn't allocate resources to the device, expecting the OS to do it. Unfortunately, -stable, doesn't do this, expecting the BIOS to do it for us. If you have a "PNP OS Yes/No" option in your BIOS, set it to "No", as this will hopefully force the BIOS to allocate resources, which -stable can then attach/use. (I know, I know, you probably don't have this option on a modern laptop, as these are all designed to be used with a "modern" OS from Redmond that does this). You might need to try -current (although right now would probably be a really bad time, as they're just integrating GCC 3 into the tree), as the ACPI support may well do a much better job of this. Oh, and IM (limited) E, this failure to allocate resources for the sound device doesn't usually cause a hang - this is probably something else, sorry. HTH.
