How did you test it?

If the audio codec is detected, a possible problem is the video driver
side.  The HDMI is handled rather in the video chip, and it has
usually a register switch to enable/disable HDMI audio.  Similarly,
the EDID handling can break the audio handling, too.

If it's really a problem of the audio codec, you can try to move the
corresponding codec id from patch_atihdmi.c to patch_intelhdmi.c.
(don't forget MODULE_ALIAS() there, too).
