Dakdot Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Hello. I just got my hackintosh working perfectly, but (there's always a but) no sound. In the past I've used VoodooHDA, which I know isn't great, but works fine for me. However when I installed it this time around, nothing happened. I've looked at guides by toleda and I got extremely confused, but I tried to make the most of it. But nothing I do can get this audio to work correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated. And if you need any more information, just ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakdot Posted January 5, 2016 Author Share Posted January 5, 2016 for alc887 i think is better to use applehda , make you sure you delete voodoohda from system/library/extensions or from clover 10.10 or 10.11 folder before installing applehda , have you tried with this app http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/496-applehda-patcher/ to patch applehda for sound , same way if you are going to install voodoohda you have to delete applehda or use applehda disabler , sometimes when using a video card with hdmi audio , one can get confused because we have to switch between the video card hdmi audio or the board audio from voodoohda panel , same way in system - preference - audio - output , just try with that app first to see if it works. it should , i also forgot to ask , are you using clover? , maybe is just a setting in clover , my neighbor switch to clover and his audio stopped working , even using the same voodoohda kext that he has always use with no problem before , then it turn out it was something in clover , i made 2 test on his system , first i installed chameleon then enoch and in both test the audio started working fine again , using the same voodoohda kext that didn't work for him in clover , you can try this version http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/517-voodoohda-288pkg/ of voodoohda if applehda don't work for you, this is the latest version with support for clover and chameleon depending on your configuration you have to select the install method , there are 3 different ways to install , read first before installing sometimes resettings the bios can make the audio work again good luck if you are in El Capitan and you don't have SIP settings properly configure , a few things can happen like , the kext won't install , the kext won't work or load even after being installed Yes, I'm using Clover. Which setting did neighbor set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakdot Posted January 5, 2016 Author Share Posted January 5, 2016 Yeah, I don't think the patching is working. Which of the generated kexts should I be using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakdot Posted January 7, 2016 Author Share Posted January 7, 2016 THANK YOU! Seriously I greatly appreciate it! It didn't make sense because VoodooHDA 2.8.7 worked fine for me in the past. Anyway thanks again for staying up until 1:00AM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
