Which applications did you run recognizing this behaviour?

I am running sid on a t61p with exactly the same chipset and no
probs at all. There seems to be a problem either with your kernel or
with your whatever soundserver you use. Not enough diskspace could
be a reason as well. Could you please check your /var/log/syslog for
reasonable errors? You can grep the file i.e. for audio or alsa.
