[gyuriho]

...
and modprobe snd-intel8x0 loads the snd_intel8x0 module.

answers to your questions:
in /proc/asound/cards I have:
0 [I82801DBICH4 ]: ICH4 - Intel 82801DB-ICH4
Intel 82801DB-ICH4 with AD1981A at 0xf8500400, irq 5


and lspci -v gives:

lspci -n | grep 0401:

00:1f.5 0401: 8086:24c5 (rev 01)

so it is supported by my kernel module (
