From the very beginning when I installed feisty, I had this nasty sound problem. Suddenly there was no sound output anymore. I never could track down on what it depended, it was like the system being muted, but it wasn't really. I had no clue what was going on and I always believed it to be some stupidity-of-mine effect. Only today I suspected that it had something to do with hibernation. It's this bug here which is apparantly present on a wide range of thinkpads running feisty (2.6.20 kernel).The work around given in the bug report
shutdown -h now
works fine, normal reboot is not enough.

So much for trying to automatically wake your laptop from hibernation in the morning, in order to get woken up by your favourite morning show streamed from the web...
