On Thinkpad T61/X61 or any other notebook using the AD1984 sound card.
There is a lot of confusion as no noise comes out of the speaker even
though PCM is at Maximum volume. The issue here is that the AD1984 now
has a switch for "Headphone" & "Speaker". But having this switch cut
on in the init script this resolves this issue and has sound coming
out of the speakers & head phone jack.

Has been tested and will finally have these just work on Thinkpad T61.

This clears up a lot of issues, just googling around you can see users
need this problem fixed.

This patch is for "/etc/init.d/alsa-utils":
