Hello,
So the short answer is probably not.
The long answer is that I have investigated the scripts that Toleda has made, read them over, and it seems they depend on Clover or some other system that makes Hackintoshes able to boot OS X. The scripts seem to work by messing about with the EFI partition on a Hackintosh. I have looked into whether something like Clover can work to inject certain bits to make HDMI audio work on a real Mac, but seems to be an unusual use case for that package. I have also looked at the VoodooHDA, as well, and installed it. It didn't seem to work either, with audio out over HDMI for this particular card.
Before I got the RX480, I had a Nvidia Geforce 650 Ti Boost which worked fantastically with HDMI audio. Hell, I acquired tons of lossless and DVD audio for playback on my receiver over HDMI which was great. So, yeah. Kind of interested in getting it back working.
If it is any consolation, I never got VooDooHDA to work over HDMI either. The latest from Toleda is:

which uses only a SSDT aml file for AMD/Nvidia (no other edits) to put the controls in the Sound Preference pane, but I have not been able to get decent audio playback. Ditto for other approaches (This is why I am thinking of just making a signature line for the public beta update notices to the effect 'Audio is still horrifically bad.')
