tombruton87 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I cannot get the sound to work for love nor money. The sound card shows up in devices and when I play a sound it plays glitchy for about a second then stops. I am using Mavericks 10.9.1, on a Asus P9x79 motherboard, with a 4930k cpu, a gtx 650ti graphics and 32gig of ram. I am guessing none of my other devices are efecting the sound I installed with a modified kernal to support the CPU and run [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] on install to get all drivers working, all is working apart from sound. The motherboard uses the ALC892 kext to support the Realtek® ALC892 that is built into the board. I have tried the Voodoo but kept getting errors saying it couldnt be used from OSX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tombruton87 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 cheers for the link really struggling with the instructions. And looking at the output of the script does the patch need to be placed in a particular folder. Would you be able to give me a simplified step by step version. What I have done is download HDAEnabler.kext and installed using kext utility, also deleted the HDAEnabler1 that multi beast installs. (the download for the kext looks like a folder I have renamed it HDAEnabler.kext at this point it looks like a kext is this the correct name) I have then downloaded the patch, changed permission so it can run and run but cant find lots of files The tutorial says to download a zip file however it does not tell you what to do with the zip file Thank You for your Time Fabio (update) Got the script working looked though it source and put the files in the folders it was expecting them. I still have glitchy audio the only difference is im using HDAEnabler rather than multis HDAEnabler1. All its doing is updating definitions so it recognises sound cards from the looks of it.

tombruton87 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 I have some progress in the form of better glitchy sound by using http://www.osx86.net/files/file/22-alc892-nodsdt-ml-and-mavericks/ again though the sound is still glitchy, rather than sound for a second then silence I get continuous glitchy sound. Also changing the sample rate in Audio midi changes how fast the sound goes on and off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombruton87 Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 I have now solved this. for my mobo which is the ASUS P9X79 you need to install the VoodooHDA 2.7.2 once installed sound will work but there will be a hissing noise. to solve this you need to edit the VooDoo kext. right click the kext explore the package then you need to edit the info.plist file. Change <key>iGain</key> <string>90</string> to <key>iGain</key> <string>0</string> and <key>Noise</key> <integer>2</integer> to <key>Noise</key> <integer>0</integer> once done install myhack and restart the machine and Boooom sound is working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
