For anybody like me, vaguely understanding what's going on, and ending up 
here: I built 3.8.13-bone39 from Robert Nelsons github site. A slightly 
modified version of cody's patch above is already applied. All you need to 
do is enable the audiocape in uEnv.txt (my cape is Rev 1A), by adding this 
line (or adjusting your optargs line, of course):

optargs=capemgr.enable_partno=BB-BONE-AUDI-01

HDMI audio is automatically switched off (no need to disable HDMIN) when 
the cape is detected. The display continues to work.

Nice, and big thanks to all who made this work! 

Now I'll have to find out why ethernet doesn't work if a usb-keyboard is 
attached, why lsmod doesn't produce any output, and if I can attach a usb 
sounddevice ;)

Best
.r.
