Hi all,

since nvidia just released a pascal driver (and after loosing nearly 3 hours of my time making that damn driver work on my system) I only have one issue that still disturb me :

 

The sound volume

 

On windows if I turn my speakers to maximum, well this is really loud... that even neigbours could hear it ^^ 

On Hackintosh, when I turn my spearks to maximum it is like 10 times less loud... i would say it is like almost minimum sound on Windows.

 

how can I fix this ? 

I did so many audio stuff that maybe I did something wrong. (not working at first, then wrong jack port...)

It always was very weak sound, even when comming from other port...

 

is there a trick, for example editing the VoodooHDA.kext's info.plist to boost the volume or to enable outpout gain ?

I mean it is like there was no sound output gain ...

like i said turning speaker's volume to maximum is not what I want. Because I don't want to make some hardware changes when I change OS ^^

 

 

Of course is something is needed like a clover config file or some information I'll try my best to give answers. 

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

thanks I 'll have a look at this ;)

I already did VoodooHDAEnableHalfVolumeFix this had improved a bit the volume but it is still too low (before doing this the audio was juste audible.. now it is acceptable but still too low for max speaker volume)

I managed to fix it.

indeed it was an error because I followed too many tutorials

the solution was simple :

i removed all the voodoohda stuf

and i installed a build kext with the help of pikeralphaALC-command tool

I rebooted and now I have fully working sound with high volume ;)
