I think that I don't need it if a little machines requires sound.
But I have many machines (mine or not mine) which use sound (or can
use it). I almost hate to install these to /etc/rc.local. And even
I want it, many users want it:-). Different point from setting
/etc/rc.conf is that anyone always check this file, but /etc/rc.local
is not so.
