I've tried to set resources with PS2 utility and device hints, but it 
never worked. I've poked my TP600e for a month and when I just wanted to 
burn the Debian ISOs I've found the right tip on 
http://panopticon.csustan.edu/thood/tp600lnx.htm#secfirm. After I reset 
the BIOS my soundcard miraculously started to work.

I use the snd_mss driver compiled in an almost vanilla 5.3-R kernel with 
ACPI enabled. No device hints, no hacks other than that BIOS reset long 
time ago and sound just works.

Try playing with firmware. And you do have the latest BIOS update, right?
