So I'll still need a new soundcard? Lame.

I have a motherboard with an ALC889A on it.

They advertised full rate audio very blatantly with it, "The ALC889A enables high quality Full Rate Lossless Audio for content protected media and support for both Blu-ray and HD DVD formats for an exhilarating home theater entertainment experience."

That's all good and well, but I have no intention of replacing my GA-965P-DS3 mobo or buying a new soundcard.
