Hmmh, this doesn't fit the in-kernel ali IRQ routing code at all. Can you 
mail me your ACPI DSDT, this may help to figure out how the IRQ routing 
really works.

Cruel hack to route every link to irq 11 (may of course lock up your box)

setpci -s 7.0 49.b=99
setpci -s 7.0 4a.b=99
setpci -s 7.0 4b.b=99

(assumes you still hardwire the IRQ for the maestro to 11)

Does this help - do you actually get sound interrupts then? If so, you 
could try to figure out which exact link it is connected to by just having 
one of the above nibbles set to 9, leave the others at 0.

The Ali IRQ routing code definitely needs fixing, it'll write totally 
wrong config space addresses with your $PIRQ table, it's just not clear 
(to me) how to fix it correctly. The DSDT may help, documentation on the 
chipset too, of course.
