Support for the 'Azalia' chipset was added in ALSA 1.0.6, which is not
available in Warty's kernel (2.6.8.1 has ALSA 1.0.4). It is completely
feasible to compile the necessary kernel modules externally using
Ubuntu's packaging tools so that you can utilise your sound chipset.

Hoary supports the 'Azalia' chipset natively.
