AFAIK, there is no harm in not running the zaptel script if you are 
using the Sangoma drivers.  To verify, first stop asterisk then unload 
the zaptel drivers, assuming RHEL based system:

# service zaptel stop

Then restart asterisk.  If you have no problem running it w/out the 
zaptel drivers then you can permanently disable loading of digium 
drivers by first identifying the runlevel of the system:

# runlevel <- outputs current run level, for example '3'

Then disable loading of drivers with the command (again RHEL system):

# chkconfig --level 3 zaptel off


Alternatively, you could just remove the symlink in 
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S09zaptel

HTH,
