The recent widget power saving introduced some unavoidable click noises on old IDT 92HD73xx chips while it still seems working on the compatible new chips. In the bugzilla, we tried lots of tests and workarounds, but they didn't help much. So, let's disable the feature for these specific chips as the least (but safest) fix.
