While "-soundhw pcspk" is quite easy to use for the average user, I
think the "-global" options will be quite hard to figure out, especially
once this deprecation message got removed again when -soundhw has been
deleted. Could you maybe add a description how to configure the
pc-speaker to docs/system/target-i386-desc.rst.inc, too?
Thanks,
