My iMac 24 (aluminium) no produces sound from the built in speakers.

Prior to change

cat /proc/asound/pcm
00-00: ALC883 Analog : ALC883 Analog : playback 1 : capture 1 
00-01: ALC883 Digital : ALC883 Digital : playback 1 : capture 1 
00-02: ALC883 Analog : ALC883 Analog : capture 1

After change

cat /proc/asound/pcm
00-02: ALC885 Analog : ALC885 Analog : capture 2
00-01: ALC885 Digital : ALC885 Digital : playback 1 : capture 1
00-00: ALC885 Analog : ALC885 Analog : playback 1 : capture 1

The solution, assuming no unforeseen consequences, is a single line
change:

                case 0x106b1000: /* iMac 24 */
                        board_config = ALC885_IMAC24;
                        break;

becomes:

                case 0x106b1000: /* iMac 24 */
                case 0x106b3e00: /* iMac 24 Au */
                        board_config = ALC885_IMAC24;
                        break;

Someone with privileges to alter the source code will have to make the
change until I found out how to produce a patch.

Note: this change is also required for 9.04.

Only tested using a 64-bit kernel.
