A week a two ago a hal update broke alsa on blackbird. After a few reboots I managed to get sound back, I believe it was fixed by downgrading hal-info to 20080508.
Yesterday I upgraded the kernel to 2.6.29-r1, and after the first reboot, again no sound (I also got the messages about /etc/modules.d in the boot messages as I got the last time this was b0rked).
So, I tried upgrading hal-info back to 20081219 (latest stable) and rebooted. Now it works (and no warning messages).
I'm assuming it's hal-info (maybe there is some dependency between the new hal version and new kernel version?) but maybe it has something to do with the reboot itself. We'll see next time.
