VIA VT1708B

I've tried various builds of VoodooHDA to try and get my VIA VT1708B on-board audio working. My stereo speakers are only a 2.1 setup so its not difficult to enable. In my BIOS I have a couple of options pertaining to sound.

 

The entry in the BIOS is "AZALIA AUDIO" which can be set to 5 diferent options: 1) Internal & External Codec w/ Front Panel set to HD Audio 2) Internal & External Codec w/ Front Panel set to AC97 3) Internal Codec 4) External Codec w/ Front Panel set to HD Audio 5) External Codec w/ Front Panel set to AC97.

 

When set to Internal Codec, Windows does not play any sound so I'm assuming that would be my HDMI audio which is not connected.

 

Does anyone have any idea on how to get this working? The farthest I've gone is being able to hear that "bleep" when you move the volume control but nothing else, iTunes & Youtube did not play any sound. That also disappeared upon reboot which was interesting.

 

I'm running 10.6.2 using the Hazard distro.

 

Thanks in advance. Specs in sig.
