No. Which Kernel? Which alsa-packages? Wich distro (sarge|testing|sid)? Did you build the latest drivers out of alsa-source 1.0.11-2? What tells cat /proc/asound after a normal boot? which modules are loaded then? Are there any mixer settings muted? > Could this be a Debian-specific problem?

Best would be to run a Live CD first to exclude a hardware failure here. And give some Infos about your system and check some audio apps like moc, alsaplayer, xmms, mplayer...... > I've had no sound on this laptop for a year, Waaaaoooow, so you are very patient ;) > and finally have some time > to put into this, but would rather not just flail about blindly...
