I have installed ALCinject.kext using kext helper. repaired permissions rebooted.... still no sound... if I look into System Profiler -> Audio (onboard) it shows 2 devices!!! is everthing as it should?? doesn't seem so. had I forgotten to remove any audio kext?

muchlife Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 definately remove Voodoo audio kext if your trying these i uploaded if its recognized in system profiler it should be working, are you trying SPDIF? only 1 of the ports will work with stereo out, i never got SPDIF working try plugging headphones into the different ports with music/audio playing, one of them should work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(which one should I look for) thanks Well, I have the MA770-UD3 (iDeneb 10.5.8), and all I did was use the ALC injector, *AND* the Azalia 1988 kext. Works for me enough that FCP7 sounds great, all 8 audio streams working and I can play video games like Nexuiz, Planeshift, etc. flawlessly. Hope that this helps. It took me weeks before I found joy with a flawless install, and a fully functioning MacPro 3,1 klone :-) Cheers! Iggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking and have not seen the Azalia kext. if there's no answer regarding removing other audio kexts (I don't know how to find them) I will try this thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muchlife Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 no, dont remove any other voodoo kexts, just the HDA audio one try removing the 3 kexts i provided above, and try these 2 in this zip file here http://rapidshare.com/files/51585161/alc889a.zip.html to confirm, kexts i provided above to remove are HDAenabler, ALCinject, AppleHDA - this link above has 2 of the same kexts, but I'm not sure if they've been modified at all, perhaps these version will work better dont forget to repair permissions after installing properly, also try booting with -f flag to rebuild the cache on boot if you have chameleon installed, check Extra/Extensions folder, some audio kexts may have made their way in there and the whole time you've only looked in System/Library/Extensions. kexts are loaded in both of those locations so ALWAYS know and keep track of what kexts have been modified, added or removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exegeses Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 no sound... if I go to "About this Mac" -> "More info" ->"Hardware" it says there's no Audio devices in order to rebuild permissions I have done this: sudo -s (my password) chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions chmod -R go=u-w /System/Library/Extensions exit and even rebooted -f flagged... no sound... played a song on iTunes trying every audio plug... no sound... do I need to install HDAenabler also? btw: also looked in spotlight for any "Extra" folder and there were any in terminal tried "locate Extra/Extensions" and there were any I don't know what to do...
