Is that Audugy ES OEM? it is suppose to work (shows under supported list). Have you tried any leopard builds? maybe some depending files missing? Did you go through general checks at page1?

thank you for your reply.
The PCB version is SB0160, I don't know either. I tried kalyway leopard 10.5.2 last night,still the same,Wow, some depending files missing? what are these? i'm a newbie.

I ment some plugins or something like ICH etc (see the first post@page1, little below and answer accordingly here).

1. Azalia, AppleHDA should be delete?
2. Nforce chipset mainboard

[macgirl]

I don't think so, I have AppleHDA and it behaves well along.

[Oxtie]

I'm note sure whether deleting Azalia and/or appleHDA will fix your problem or not, however its worth a try though, I've read few who had conflicts with Azalia...

hmmm This page is worth checking out from macgirl about sounding on ALL Speakers!

[vbetts]

So this is odd, any doom 3 based game, there's no sound, saying that my card doesn't support openAL. I'm using a live 16-bit.

[cocozsdo]

The mainboard BIOS came with modified one,Today I flashed it to Offical BIOS, Oh..... The sound works good.

Super work on the Drivers guys!! Download -> Install and presto! Thanks a lot!

Driver works great.

For the sleep/wakeup issue I use the next solution :

Download and Install SleepWatcher.

Edit /etc/rc.sleep and add this line at the end :

CODE

       sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/kXAudioDriver.kext

Edit /etc/rc.wakeup and add this two lines at the end :

CODE

       sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/kXAudioDriver.kext
       sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/kXAudioDriver.kext

Finally, edit /etc/sudoers and add this two lines at the end :

CODE

       %users localhost=/sbin/kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/kXAudioDriver.kext
       %users localhost=/sbin/kextload   /System/Library/Extensions/kXAudioDriver.kext

I tried a few times the sleep/wakeup and it worked just great for me.

Note : The reason for unloading the kext both at sleep and wake is because same time it doesn't unload properly the first time, I think because the audio is in use.

hmm, followed your steps but doesnt seem to work for me...

Audigy 2 ZS PCI on my K8V-SE Deluxe is working fabulously. I was searching forever for some AD1980 kexts that would work with my onboard sound, thank you so much for getting these out to all of us using Audigy cards on our OSX86 machines.

[VNOSX208]

It worked man, i'm surprise!

Answers to all your questions are in the first post....

specifically: "* 16/24-bit recording" not implemented. (no mic in)

This 1.21b version has worked fine with my Audigy for months and several 10.5.x iterations for DVDs, OS sounds, iTunes, etc., BUT on Internet radio such as Radioshift, all I get is a type of birdsong twittering out of both speakers.
Any suggestions why and possible solutions?

Hello All!

I'am was install latest kX drivers 1.2b1 on Retail 1054 update to 1056 MAC OS X.
and get that bug after some circle off/on of my Hack.

CODE

Jan 11 07:37:50 Mac kernel[0]: kXAudioDevice[0x68fc700]::init: --- driver start-up, version 1.2b1
Jan 11 07:37:50 Mac kernel[0]: kXAudioDevice[0x68fc700]::initHardware(0x5ff8580)
Jan 11 07:37:50 Mac kernel[0]: kXAudioDevice[0x68fc700]::free()
Jan 11 07:37:50 Mac kernel[0]: kXAudioDevice[0x68fc700]::free_all() - iKX interface already closed
Jan 11 07:37:50 Mac kernel[0]: display: family specific matching fails

Sound did not work out of the box. i must reinstall drivers with fully reboot. and then my audio work fine some few hour, but after reboot it again get iKX interface already closed

Update:
some happings abount...
after touch extensions folder and reboot sound card still have interface close, and after clear whole of kind caches and update prebinding with OSX86Tools it work again... but i think after next reboot i've againg close interfase....
that bug show it sef only in Retail instalations..

[luxus]

i got a problem with 5.1 sound.. when i play a hd movie 720p the sound have some cracking sound... i dont think it is a cpu problem c2c 3,2ghz should be enough anyone know any tips?

edit...
ok.. .even on the test mp3s from oxtie i have the cracking sound on buffering ... (when i play it again after it is full loaded it plays normal)

[Shaverdoff Gerasim]

UPD:
i found the skeleton in my clothed...
that is some is wrong in System Application Cache.
after i'am cleaning it with OSX86Tools and reboot my card return to work...(still 5.1 surround scheme)

another half-solve is 5.1 surruond scheme. If a'im swith for 2 channels stereo my card still work after reboot. and a'im dont need to clear System Application cache.

that problem happens after i'am Install/Uninstall Soundflower and do some configuration to make input. (but i solfe input problem with buying a cheap U.S.Robotics skype usb phone).

it so weird...

any thought will be a welcome.

[chip22]

Thanks. Your solution helped me, but I have a problem. Audible sound is good for few seconds after the sound became distorted. There is a solution for this problem?

In Sound / Output panel from System preferences >is this device kX SB0222 10k1 [1040] PCI card

Sound / Input - No input device found

Thanks in advance.
