No, you can disable ISAPNP in just ALSA and just recompile the ALSA 
modules, no need to kill ISAPNP in the rest of the kernel. It's an ALSA 
configure option. If ALSA was compiled with ISAPNP support then the 
option isapnp=0 disables it, but if ISAPNP is configured out of ALSA 
then isapnp=0 has no meaning and the option is ignored, though there is 
a small warning issued when the modules are loaded. Either way will work.
