When I load the toshiba kernel module, then the alsa driver, set the mixer settings, then I have sound most of the time (under an old version of gnome). The other option is to unload alsa and load the ymfpci module (kernel/oss) and there is sound (guaranteed every time).
My intention was to compare the low level code of the kernel oss driver with the alsa driver and see what they do differently. My initial guess is that the initialisation is done slightly differently... Alas, I haven't had the chance to do so... (yet). tom.
