Looks mostly fine to me. But we can only enable HDMI audio
to one port at one time, so should we handle that case in two HDMI
ports case? And note that as DVI is compatible with HDMI, we've seen
many boards that using HDMI port for DVI output. So we might also check
in that case to not enable audio (recent added xserver xf86MonitorIsHDMI()
API might help here).
