Tach Florian, here is the output of the various commands:

peter@peter:~$ cat /proc/interrupts | egrep -i 'hda|23:'
23:     274056          0   IO-APIC-fasteoi   HDA Intel

There is apparently only one codec:
peter@peter:~$ ls /proc/asound/card0/
codec#2    id         oss_mixer  pcm0c/     pcm0p/     pcm1p/
