audio over HDMI motherboard

anyone know of a motherboard that supports HD audio over HDMI yet ?

ASUS P5E-VM HDMI according to here Bit Tech

It's worth noting that we could not get sound over HDMI when using the Nvidia board – it needs an S/PDIF loop-back which wasn't provided in the box and there's no clearly-labelled pins around the HDMI port that tell us where it should go anyway. In comparison all we had to do was disable the on-board audio on the MSI board for the IGP to route audio via HDMI instead and the Intel G35 was the easiest with no settings change on our part at all – the Silicon Image Sil1392 chipset automatically switches the output.
