I'm sorry my bug report was a little bit incorrect. The mainboard uses the 
Intel chipset for audio too and the sound driver is part of the kernel.
I just use analog audio and not audio over HDMI. I tried audio over HDMI, but 
it doesn't work and I didn't spent time to fix it because the analog audio 
works fine.

Great, I'll test the package soon.
