OK, an update.
Now running Karmic alpha-2 from a clean install.

Periodically get this in the dmesg, but doesn't seem to affect the
functionality much; seems to recover just fine:

Thanks for the suggestion!
Ok, tried that option and the sound looping/repeating starts immediately
at login.
These lines now in the dmesg at boot:
[ 46.152017] hda_intel: No response from codec, disabling MSI: last

Apologies, there was one more (possibly relevant) dmesg line I missed from my
previous comment:
[ 11.165206] HDA Intel :00:14.2: irq 24 for MSI/MSI-X
A random thought occurred; I know very little about this sort of thing
and so this is possibly a complete red herring:

Unable to get this behaviour with mainline kernel; however the sound is still
misbehaving badly (actually worse).

OK, so with 2.6.28-12-generic #43-Ubuntu the SATA issue was less
obvious, but it turned out could still manifest under heavy disk access
load. Further I continued experiencing unpredictable lockups/freezes
with the flashing caps-lock.
I've now tried a mainline kernel:

The problem manifests during sustained downloads from the internet, e.g.
downloading an Ubuntu CD image, or running a large update with update-
manager. The result is that the disk goes read-only without warning,
and the trace included be

I may have a fix... it appears this laptop needs this in /etc/modprobe.d

ok, I was too optimistic... the looping/repeating still happens.
Every few boots, or after using sound for about 5 minutes the looping
returns. reboot required to recover.

Can confirm this issue is still in Karmic:

@Daniel,
That package wasn't installed.
Am now tracking lucid(2.6.32-2-generic and libasound2 1.0.21a-1ubuntu1)
If I remove the line in alsa-base.conf the looping behaviour reliably appears
after a short while.
The dmesg shows:
[84644.363779] HDA Intel :00:14.2: PCI INT A disabled
[84644.7
I had the same issue right through lucid development. Adding the nohwcrypt
option fixed it for me too.
Thanks for getting to the bottom of this Lucious and psyke83... it destroyed my
wifi on lucid for a long time!
