/dev/rtc not working on ASUS A7V133

If my ASUS A7V133-based computer got started by the bios automatic
startup timer, /dev/rtc doesn't work properly. /proc/drivers/rtc
shows sane values, but IRQ 8 is not triggered causing programms like
'hwclock' to hang.

I assume this is not a kernel bug but a BIOS problem, but it would be
nice if a kernel workaround was possible. Does anybody have an
idea what I could try to reenable the interrupts?
