I've just bought an hp ze4115 and (after lots of hair-tearing wasted time) I installed knoppix (www.knopper.net/knoppix) which booted up (with the "knoppix nomce nopcmcia" boot time options) and autodetected everything from X to sound. If nothing else works I'd reccomend loading it (it's a CD based installation of Debian 2.4.19-xfs which runs entirely out of a ramdisk but can be written to the HD if desired) just to see how it autodetects and sets up your sound. Worked for me :)
