Did you actually try compiling a kernel without CONFIG_SND_HDA_INPUT_BEEP
set? If you do, does your PC speaker work again?
Yes it works. Even with CONFIG_SND_HDA_INPUT_BEEP set,
but without the module loaded. See all the details at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13651
If it does work again, I don't think there is a bug, at least not in the
fact that the old PC speaker beep no longer works: if you have a HDA
soundcard in the system _and_ the driver is loaded _and_
CONFIG_SND_HDA_INPUT_BEEP is set, then it seems logical to me that that
takes over system beeps.
The fact that the config option also existed in 2.6.29 but did not work
the same seems a minor issue to me.
Original issue was that I didn't know what to do.

If it really does sound bad, maybe the ALSA developers could look into
that, but you will have to describe it better (or maybe make a
recording?).
There was another, unrelated bug, fixed for 2.6.31-tobe.
