The ear speaker is bonded to the chassis. You need to do the whole teardown to get to it. Check that the speaker really is broken: it may just be a bad contact to the motherboard. It might be easier just to buy a reconditioned chassis for a few pounds, which will include the speaker, as it seems to be quite difficult to get the speaker out when you get to it.
