It's because now the driver checks the SSID your board sets up. Realtek codecs suppose SSID containing some useful bits to inform the h/w setups. The presence of PC beep is one of it. So, it's actually BIOS that clears it. In the earlier version, the driver didn't check this. Actually, the real bug is that it still creates a beep device without mixers. This should be avoided... thanks, Takashi _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
