Hmmm...I'm at the latest alsa and still getting this. Also it happens
in the kernel long before I see any alsa stuff being loaded. Are you
sure this doesn't have something to do with that reverted pcspkr patch
(someone thought it was registered but it wasn't or vice versa, anyway
there seems to be some confusion about what the right thing to do with
the speaker is).
Incidentally I get no sound out of my speaker, but I'm going to have to
open to the case to verify that it's got a internal speaker for that
one - I know that when I was using the onboard sound it was sending the
mobo sound to the onboard sound so I'm not sure what's up with that.
Regards,
Daniel
