Bug#569494: linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-686: pcspkr sometimes breaks audio
In theory, this should never happen; snd_card_create() takes an idx
that sets the order of cards, /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base-blacklist.conf
blacklists snd-pcsp (so it should never be loaded!),
and /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf sets idx=-2 for snd_pcsp so that
it's not loaded as the first soundcard.
This is a fresh install; alsa-base was not initially installed (I did a
minimal install, and then installed packages manually). That's why I
hit this.
I'd suggest adding alsa-base as a Recommends or Suggests for
linux-image-2.6*-686 (and possibly others).
