Second "CPU" of 1-core HyperThreading CPU not found in 2.6.13

Greetings kind hackers...
I recently switched to 2.6.13 on my desktop. I noticed that the second
"CPU" (is there a better term to use in this HyperThreading scenario?) that
used to be listed in /proc/cpuinfo is no longer present. Browsing over the
archives, it appears as if someone else had this problem... their solution
was to enable CONFIG_PM, but I already have CONFIG_PM enabled.
I have to boot with 'noapic' because I have my CD-Writer hanging off an
aic7xxx, and that driver goes into a nice error loop if I boot without it.
I'll include some lspci output below in case it is useful. There's one more
thing I noticed in the transition to 2.6.13, but I'm really not sure where I
could start diagnosing it, and so any suggestions would be marvelous.
As I mentioned, this machine is my desktop. In the past, I've been able to
run compilers / other intensive tasks while listening to music in XMMS - the
playback is never disrupted (indeed, on this P4 3.2ghz XMMS takes virtually
none of the processor). Yet I've noticed enough momentary stops in sound
output now to begin to suspect I've got some kind of problem.
Last kernels that were functional in both regards were 2.6.12.4 and 2.6.11.7.
Please note that I have not compiled with the new default tick rate of 250Hz
- I'm running 1000Hz, and I have also enabled the Preemptible kernel and BKL
Preemption as I have in earlier kernels.
