rayap, i tried copying Platform.xml.zlib and layout36.xml.zlib into 10.8 GM AppleHDA, plus ALC885HDA.kext, do a touch and reboot, result: the device doesn't show up anymore.
previously in 10.7.4 I am able to get sound by using only Platform.xml and layout885.xml plus HDAEnabler.kext (from digital_dreamer script)

is there anything that I missed? should I copy the zlib version of layout885 too?

Post your DSDT.aml

Hi there. Same problem, almost. I'm running ML 12A269 with default (native) AppleHDA and this HDEF section in dsdt:

			Device (HDEF)
			{
				Name (_ADR, 0x001B0000)
				Method (_PRW, 0, NotSerialized)
				{
					Return (Package (0x02)
					{
						0x0D,
						0x05
					})
				}
				Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
				{
					Store (Package ()
						{
							"codec-id",
							Buffer (0x04)
							{
								0x89, 0x08, 0xEC, 0x10
							},
							"hda-gfx",
							Buffer (0x0A)
							{
								"onboard-1"
							},
							"layout-id",
							Unicode ("B"),
							"device-type",
							Buffer (0x10)
							{
								"Realtek ALC889a"
							},
							"PinConfigurations",
							Buffer (One)
							{
								0x00
							}
						}, Local0)
					DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
					Return (Local0)
				}
			}

Sound works, but I get a bunch of sound assertion errors in logs:

Any suggestions how to fix it?

Post your DSDT.aml

you can download my dsdt.aml file from here:  http://www.mediafire...54vxdbd2aruvusn

EDIT.

i saw a new driver on osx86 kext web site for alc889 and i installed it with HDEF and it works 2.0 sound i thinks its cause of the HDEF edits for the wrong audio card so if you could edit my dsdt.aml and alc889a kext driver that be great and if possible with 5.1 surround sound

thanks in advance

[rayap]

Maybe you want to try this with ID:12. Rgds.

Hi try the voodooHDA kext and change your id in info.plist then see what you have after this. Then you can try to change the info.plist or create a dsdt file and change the right lines

P.S : sorry for my english i m french and if you want more information about VoodooHDA pm me i got my rear mic and rear output(green) works with other ports. If what i said is wrong say it
P.P.S : oh again i have a dwa-510 pci card i saw in so threads that she is impossible to install on leopard or snow leopard but i think i can do something on it, if anyone can give me more informations it should be great for me ty, i will creat a post for this card

Use  ALC885HDA_Lion_MLion_V1.00.zip from here. It works for me with layout id 12.

That is,

• Copy Platforms.xml.zlib and layout12.xml.zlib to /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext/Contents/Resources/
  
• Copy ALC885HDA.kext to /System/Library/Extensions
  
• Edit DSDT as described in the readme
  
• touch /System/Library/Extensions
  
• reboot

[megavolkan]

Same here. I've tried ALC885HDA_Lion_MLion_V1.00.zip. It shows up as a 885 device in System Profiler. But in System Preferences ther is no sound output, nothing.

Also i realized ALC885HDA.kext is not loading. It's in S/L/E and properly installed, but non showing up in loaded kexts.

EDIT: Now realized in Console system.log says "com.apple.kextcache[301]: ALC885HDA.kext is not authentic; omitting."

Does it ring a bell? Not to me

[JamesLittler]

OK, remove ALC885HDA.kext and restore the vanilla AppleHDA.kext then reset permissions and rebuild kernel cache.
This DSDT should give you line out and headphones, make sure you select line out in system preferences as headphones is the default.

FYI the 'not authentic' error is caused by permissions. Just use disk utility to repair permissions then try to create your kernel cache.

SUCCESS!! It works, and it's perfect (so far). Thank you JamesLittler and everyone who tried to help. You guys rock!
