Chipset intel-hda (ICH8)

[Christopher Stamper]

I have a newer Intel HDA, embedded on my Motherboard. I think its ICH8.

It works, almost. I can get audio output, but it sounds horrible. Never
really tried to get it to work, as I'm using a PCI card.

But it sounds like its skipping or something. Like I need to add some
latency, buffer, or whatever: like the cpu can't keep up (it can). Just
using the default install, no drivers, or other hacks.
