[Bug 249558] Re: snd-hda-intel module breaks pc speaker

[nUboon2Age]

** Description changed:

  The pc speaker works, evidenced by beeps whenever bios detects an error
  during startup, or when booting directly into FreeDOS.  But it does not
  work when Ubuntu is loaded.
  
- Research shows that this is related to the snd-hda-intel module, and
- related to the Alsa project.  There is a bug reported at the alsa
+ Research shows that this is related to the snd-hda-intel module, pcspkr,
+ and related to the Alsa project.  There is a bug reported at the alsa
  project for hardware similar to mine:

+     https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=3716
  
  I've attached the appropriate alsa information, using the utils_alsa-
  info.sh from the Alsa Project.
  
  There are no known workarounds in Ubuntu at this time.  This link
  describes potential workarounds that depend on packages that are not in
  Ubuntu repositories at this time:
