I can also confirm that it pretty much works - in that I now get sound from the left speaker finally but overall the sound seems more tinny - ie. has a lot less bass and is more treble-y - is there some difference between what the new mb5 model uses and the old mbp3 model which may have affected this? Does anyone else also think this is the case or is it just me?

In MacBook and MacBookPro 5,1 (aluminium, late 2008) the soundcard works out of the box only with headphones, and to turn speakers on it is necessary to manually set the 6 channels. In that case, sound is heard both on headphones and right and center speaker; the left speaker doesn't work yet.
