Try:
modprobe w83781d force_subclients=1,0x28,0x4a,0x4b

And/or ask Tyan for a fixed BIOS.

Which chip is it exactly? Which address(es) is sensors-detect reporting
in the first place? Tyan have a long history of conflicting sucblient
addresses.

You may try w83627hf instead of w83781d, as the former can auto-detect
the ISA address and the latter cannot.
