No sound from auvia (VIA VT8237)

Hello everybody,

The auvia sound driver seems not to work properly on a
VIA EPIA-CN10000EG motherboard. (When playing audio files
with any of
ogg123, mpg321, or audioplay, the command gets stuck and I
don't get
any output.) I'm using a netbsd-4-0-RC1 GENERIC kernel, see
attached
dmesg.

I tried

   options        PCI_ADDR_FIXUP          # fixup PCI I/O
addresses
   options        PCI_BUS_FIXUP           # fixup PCI bus
numbering
   options        PCI_INTR_FIXUP          # fixup PCI
interrupt routing

which didn't help.

What does help is using the GENERIC.NOACPI kernel; sound
output is
fine with that kernel.

Is there a way to have both ACPI and the auvia driver work?

Cheers,
  Christoph

Just for the record:

Today I found the time to fiddle with the various BIOS
settings. It
turns out that if you set the field "Resources
Controlled By" to
"Manual" in the "PnP/PCI Configurations"
menu and then set IRQ 5 to
"Reserved" in the sub-menu "IRQ
Resources" the sound output is okay
even if I use an ACPI enabled kernel.

auvia0 is now on IRQ 7 (used to be IRQ 9); if ACPI is
disabled auvia0
is on IRQ 5.

Cheers,
  Christoph
