Unfortunately I tried that and it doesn't work. A patch was needed since 
the reported eeprom size was 120 and no provision was made for that. I 
was able to get an eeprom dump and it doesn't look quite as the data for 
the aureon eeprom:

EEPROM dump: 45 53 49 33 78 78 78 78 45 47 4f 53 59 53 ff ff ff ff ff ff

Module loads and report ICE1724 at ALSA but no sound at all. The 
following errors appear:

PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:0a.0
invalid EEPROM version 120
AC'97 0:0 does not respond - RESET
ice1712: cannot initialize pro ac97, skipped

and here is the lspci data (after module loaded):
