The 'intel-hda' device should have an 'id' set on the command
line. The codec devices should then use that id value to associate
themselves with the intel-hda device.
QEMU generally allows you to omit all these ids and does some
'sensible' behaviour, but libvirt must never rely on that
because we need to guarentee a stable guest ABI. Everything
must thus be fully specified
