I have the exact same motherboard. I'm have the sound working under ALSA. 
It required me to compile the alsa-source, and while I was at it, I
recompiled a kernel as well. I have a link to stuff that will help out
with it. 

I think some of the newer kernels have support for the VIA chipset but
I've stuck to using ALSA.

Playing around with ALSA link:
