M3N-H/HDMI sound dying after a while

I'm having a problem with this motherboard's souncard an ALC1200 (snd-hda-intel). It seems that after a while, and while the card it's not in use it simply dies, without saying nothing. It seems like a power_save issue, although I have disabled it and I still have the problem. I have updated to the latest BIOS, and I'm using alsa-driver yesterday's snapshot. The only solution it's to reboot the hole machine. I'm using the deadline I/O scheduler, maybe this has something to do with it? I keep having this problem, anyone had this kind of problem with a similar soundcard?

I'll post some info to see if someone has any idea:

#
# /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf (for v2.6 kernels)
#
options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=1 power_save=0 model=auto index=0
options snd-pcsp index=1

aplay -l

Any help is wellcome... Thanks in advance...

It seems that no one has expirience with some similar issue, I have opened a bug report to ALSA Project. I'll update the post for conclusions here, for future googlers...
