[Solved] Modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'snd_pcsp': Busy

Hello,
I was trying to load the snd-pcsp kernel module. I've searched how to fix this. I can't find a definitive answer, so I decided to consult here.

When I run: `sudo modprobe snd-pcsp`
I get: `modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'snd_pcsp': Device or resource busy`

Thanks In Advance

Looking around with Google, I'm guessing you have "pcspkr" loaded and you then can't load "snd-pcsp" because both pcspkr and snd-pcsp are for the same hardware device.

That fixed it! Thanks!
