Already disabled. I had problems with them with my last motherboard
using its VIA AC97 onboard sound. Either way, I still can't hear audio
if I am not in X with play and speaker-test commands. :( They used to
work on my old motherboard setup.
Speaking of hardware swap, was I supposed to reset something?
