Realtek ALC883 / ICH8 sound supported outside -CURRENT?

[John Reynolds]

Hello all, a cursory study of the mailing list archives seems to indicate that
there is sound support in -CURRENT for ICH8+Realtek ALC883. True? If so, is
this support going to be MFC'ed into 6-STABLE before the next release of 6.x or
will it only go forward with 7.0-RELEASE?

I'm in the market one of the P965 motherboards and am looking at

  http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Motherboard/Products_Spec.aspx?ClassValue=Motherboard&ProductID=2321&ProductName=GA-965P-S3

specifically. Anybody out there with any experience with this board related to
sound support (or any other successes / caveats)?

Thanks,

-Jr
