Bug#532005: this seems related to my issue



Hello,

Until 2.6.29-2-amd64 my laptop was making a special sound (two system 
beeps in rapid succession) when plugging/unplugging the power cord. This 
sound would work whether the pcspkr module was loaded or not (which 
would stop any other system beeps), but can be disabled by muting the 
"Beep" control in alsamixer. It also works during POST or at the grub 
menu.

With 2.6.30-1-amd64 this works only a few seconds into the boot sequence 
when it stops completely and no loading/unloading of modules or 
mutin/unmuting of channels will bring it back. This seems to be related 
to this

$ dmesg | grep Beep
[    6.234499] input: HDA Digital PCBeep as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/input/input10

(I see the submitter has the same thing in his dmesg)

which doesn't show up at all if I boot 2.6.29-2-amd64. Also, the system 
beep has a much higher pitch now (very annoying).

Is this a known regression?

Regards,
Andrei
