The subject sais it :-(. In alsamixer I can't umute or set any pc speaker related settings since 2.6.35. The control for pc speaker is gone :-(. Now I started the last working kernel 2.6.34, run alsa-info. Then repeated same with 2.6.36.
can you please help to solve this? For accessibility software a working pc-speaker is really useful :-).
Sorry, I do not know what is causing this. But I compared both files using `diff -u`, so people reading the list can compare more easily.

From the `dmesg` output
-[ 1.868869] input: HDA Digital PCBeep as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/input/input6
is not present in newer ALSA/Linux version. This could be the reason why no controls are created.
Thanks and I hope the developers will be able to help you,
