Hmm.. sound works just fine for me on my X61s (model #7668-CTO)
running 2.6.24.  

I do have this private patch applied --- maybe it makes a difference
for you?  I don't think it should make a difference, but....

    hda_intel suspend latency: shorten codec read
    
    not sleeping for every codec read/write but doing a short udelay and
    a conditional reschedule has cut suspend+resume latency by about 1
    second on my T60.
    
    The patch also fixes the unexpected codec-connection errors that
    happen more often in the new power-save mode:

        http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9332
    
    This had been applied, and then reverted due to problems.  See commit
