Success! I found a set of amped speakers with subwoofer. Connecting them to 
the back Line Out socket using Analog Stereo Out works with a sound quality 
and volume good enough for me. Except that the speakers keep giving this 
ticking sound, even when not plugged into pc. Is that just because it's some 
old crap I found? It's probably 15-20 years old or more. (Altech Lansing?)

I looked in the bios, but the only thing I could find was:

and

The reason for looking now that I have sound, is that it puzzles me that it 
looks like there's a second disabled sound card/chip/something :P

I will dig some more in the manual and see if I can find an answer to the 
mystery ;)

Thanks to you all for the help.
