Have you tried OSS? There is also a new version of the Solaris hdaudio driver 
available here:

http://opensolaris.org/os/community/device_drivers/files/audiohd-2008-08-25.tar.gz

To use OSS or the new audiohd driver, you would need to install OpenSolaris to 
your hard disk first. The first one to try is OSS as this is probably mor 
elikely to work.

To install the new hdaudio driver, issue the following commands in a terminal 
window:

1. Get a root shell: pfexec bash
2. Expand the file you downloaded: 7z x audiohd-2008-08-25.tar.gz
3. Unpack the resulting tarball: tar -xvf audiohd-2008-08-25.tar . You will see 
a list of files as they are being expanded from the tarball.
4. The 2 directories you are interested in are obj32 and obj64. Copy the 
contents of obj32 to /kernel/drv and the contents of obj64 to /kernel/drv/amd64 
as follows:

cp obj32/* /kernel/drv
cp obj64/* /kernel/drv/amd64

5. Reboot the computer and see if you now have sound.

Cheers

Andrew.
