Sony Vaio PCG-GRT996VP sound - another go

[Gary Stainburn]

Hi folks.

I've got the above laptop running FC3+Errata and I thought I'd have 
another go at getting sound working.

Kudzu (?) detected the sound h/w and configured it so that I get sound 
out, but it's very stuttery.  I've had a look round but can't see what 
it's done to configure it. There's nothing in modules.conf for example 
(but the modules seem to be loaded).

Below is what I've got so far. Anyone any ideas what to do next?
