If you build the sound as a module and thinkpad as a build-in component
the linker will complain about missing symbols. So the right fix may
be a patch that 1) enforces the sound component to be build static or
to enforces thinkpad apic to be build as a module. Another way 2) is
to separate the thinkpad sound component in a autonomous separate
module.

Any other ideas Henrique?
