Description
The snd_pcsp sometimes overrides hda_intel and gets inserted as the default ALSA sound device. Can we set up a blacklist for it?

History
Updated by mihanson about 15 years ago
I have added module snd-pcsp to the MODULES parameter of /etc/rc.conf (MODULES=(!snd-pcsp)) and so far so good. I'd like to give it more time since the problem was intermittent. FWIW, I had discussed in IRC a problem with another FE (rfe-2) where sporadicly the sound would not work. I believe the snd-pcsp module was to blame there as well. I had the problem on rfe-2 again this morning and noticed an error reference to the pc speaker on std error. I've blacklisted the snd-pcsp on all my FE's now as a precaution.

Blacklisting in /etc/rc.conf's MOD_BLACKLIST= does not work on at least one of my FE's (geode). It has to be blacklisted in MODULES= as !snd-pcsp

Since blacklisting in MODULES=(!snd-pcsp) things have been solid as a rock. It's been 2 weeks now and I think this solves the problem.
