Hi,
that's hard to believe. What do you mean by "left it active"? Could you
please give a few examples? What happens?
Disabling the onboard audio device by the BIOS settings is a good idea,
if it's anyway unneeded, but this shouldn't necessarily be required, to
improve something, let alone that removing the module shouldn't make a
difference.
Don't know about the original poster's situation, but disabling the
onboard audio on my laptop via BIOS meant that Debian came up with no
audio at all. Blacklisting the module worked better.
As far as by "leaving it active", perhaps he means his system adamantly
insists on making the on-board audio the default audio device for
everything? My desktop system has onboard HDMI audio. Since it's
connected to an HDMI monitor, the system would make the HDMI audio the
default device. Not useful since the monitor has no speakers ...
