I now have sound and ACPI working after following the instructions at http://www.gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Fix_Common_ACPI_Problems and http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-3774561.html#3774561

I've included a patch that can be applied against my dsdt.dsl above. The sources I used were linux-source-2.6.17 (from the Ubuntu 6.10) and alsa-driver-1.0.14rc1 ( from the ALSA web site). The kernel config was based on Ubuntu 6.10's /boot/config-2.6.17-10-generic. I've included a patch that shows the differences.

The problem is solved in the interim but I'd like to see the fixes migrate into future Ubuntu releases so that others that are less technical won't have to go through this process. Of course it's up to the maintainers to decide to close the bug and leave things as they are. :-)
