Given agerage quality of the speakers in the current boxes and
abudance of on-board sound I doubt any distriution would want to have
snd-pcsp enabled since there is a chance it may come up as a primary
(default) sound device. At least my experience with F[C]7 that
juggling 3 sound cards is not very easy.
