An early booting warning message |

Hello!
I've seen this warning message from my boot screen pretty much every
time I boot guix system on my T400.
[ 36.909489] Error: Driver 'pcspkr' is already registered, aborting...
The system boots just fine, but I figured I'd report this error
message.
Thanks!
Joshua
