HDMI ports are normally present on cards connected to an internal bus,
and module-switch-on-connect should switch to them when a HDMI monitor
is plugged.
This is specially relevant on setups where the HDMI port of a machine is
connected to a different audio card then the analog outputs, which is
the case for machines with AMD graphics cards.
