Research direction

Start by locating the micro:bit simulator code and the existing V2 board detection path. Trace how the external speaker connection is added, then verify that it is absent when V2 is detected while remaining available for other boards. The issue provides no file or test names, so identify the relevant simulator entry point and tests before making the change.
