 Couldn't you build it and blacklist it, like with snd-pcsp?  Or is that
open bug about not obeying the blacklist why it's not built at all?
(hmm, is it maybe getting loaded in the initramfs, which doesn't have
the blacklist?  Because it's an "input" module?)

 I guess I'm pretty old-school, liking my computers to beep.  But not
having it come out my main speakers means that the volume setting on my
speakers doesn't matter, and it works even when my speakers are in
optical input mode, and mplayer is sending them DTS audio over TOSLINK.

 I'll try snd-pcsp again, but before I upgraded module-init-tools, snd-
pcsp became alsa card0, which is horrible.  Probably it won't be too
hard to config things so that's not the case, but I'd rather alsa didn't
know about it at all.

 happy hacking,
