I would suggest trying 2.6.33.1, which has a variety of bug fixes applied. Also check that it boots completely and that this is not a generic kernel issue with your particular laptop hardware. For example, can you connect to it over ssh after it boots, and are there any serious problems reported in the kernel logs? In general, start from the bottom: try to rule out booting problems, then general sound issues, and finally Speakup-specific difficulties.
