Well, by now I'm not so much worried about this particular case.
I use external speakers now.

A haphazard firmware development appears to be the norm
in embedded world even if product line isn't sold from one firm
to another, as happened in this case.

When I buy a "consumer electronics" product, I have come
to expect total absense of meaningful technical documentation,
no possibility to file a bug report, and I'm lucky
if firmware updates do not stop in less than a year.
(Heck, sometimes there are no updates at all!)
