Thade Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 For this error: The system extension “/System/Library/Extensions/AppleAzaliaAudio.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOHDAudioFamily.kext“ was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product’s vendor for an update. In my case it was caused by installing Sound Blaster USB drivers during OS installation (required for logitech usb headphones). I couldn't figure out a way to fix it after the fact so I did a clean install (without sb usb) and used the fix posted on this thread and all is well with onboard sound. Installing the SB USB drivers after this fix was applied also works well and now both devices are detected.

Rene204 Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Update: Got a Kext from 10.4.3, have the same: digital in and Line In, but no sound input is working. exactly the same as with other floating applehda.kext around here. rene Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/18642-how-to-alc882-sound/page/2/#findComment-173742 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunchandamovie Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 It would be nice to get sound input. My mic just sits here doing nothing...plus, my front headphone jack/mic/line in doesn't work. Only the back line out works. Are there any updates?

dhess83 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Rammjet, the instructions you gave me were perfect. You explained it down to the very last detail. I really appreciate you taking the time to type all that out for me just now. As for the other guy posting in this thread... just do what Rammjet says! Thanks again, I wish more forums had people that were willing to explain things this clearly.

miramar Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Thanks for the guide! This also works for ALC888 sound on an Asrock ConroeXfire-eSata2 m/b. Just change 880 to 888 instead of 882. Stereo sound out via the green jacks. No inputs. mir...

Rammjet Posted August 27, 2006 Author Share Posted August 27, 2006 Have ALC880 chipset. Tried this guide, but getting following error. Any ideas? kextload: extension /System/Library/Extensions/AppleAzaliaAudio.kext appears to be valid 15IOHDAudioStream is not compatible with its superclass, 8OSObject superclass changed? kextload: a link/load error occured for kernel extension /System/Library/Extensions/AppleAzaliaAudio.kext In my experience, this either means you entered one of the strings in the wrong format or you altered the plist in some other way - added spaces, or a return character or changed the indenting. For ALC880, the first string is probably "0x10ec0880" and the 2nd string is most likely of the form "0xZZZZ8086" where ZZZZ are 4 characters similar to (but may be different than) "27d8". If you used strings that are not like these, then review how you arrived at those strings. Remember, the 2nd string is backwards from first string. The first string is "0x" followed by (vendor id) followed by (device id). The second string is "0x" followed by (device id) followed by (vendor id). Go back into the files and verify that things look right. Indenting is consistent, nothing seems to be out of place, no extra spaces, no extra characters. Good luck!

Yep, sorry I was in a rush and did a quick Copy of wrong code! Here is the right stuff! Looks the same as above and your guide. As I said, other methods caused error messages but your don't, so must work right. But Still no sound from any of the jacks? I did Permi repair and also disabled, then re-enabled sound in Bios, just to see if a miracle might appear. Must AppleHD.kext be deleted as per your guide, this I did or can one use it? You got the same board right? What Bios V. U on? Me 0604 Only on asus.com.tw site!

Rammjet Posted August 30, 2006 Author Share Posted August 30, 2006 1) Not my guide. It is aRt's guide as I explain in the beginning of the guide. I just formatted it and added the appendix to explain where to get the device id's. 2) My sound works fine following the guide. Yes, you must delete AppleHDA.kext in addition to the Extensions.mkext and Extensions.kextcache files. 3) My mobo BIOS is v0601, but I doubt that this matters. Sound comes out of the sound-out jack (green).

Rene204 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 did you removed the both extensions.cache files before reboot? try again with deleting these files... after this guide, my sound works fine too.

kada Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Same here, though I did found something under Linux. And I have an AMD board with ATI chipset, so I have no clue what this other device is. I do have Windows, but I'm using (under Linux and Windows) my soundcard. But bad sound is better than no sound, so it would be nice to have the onboard stuff working. Edit: Oh well... me = stupid. I should activate the onboard sound... works perfect now.

dexthageek Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 I am running 10.4.3 and upon install my ALC880 output worked perfectly for 2 days. Then while I was watching a video when the volume control disappeared from the taskbar and has not come back since. Sound Specs: Mobo: Abit AA8XE DeviceID: 0880 VenderID: 10ec I have tried the Guide Rammjet posted and still no audio. Here are the ids i tried The follow Settings did not work AudioAzaliaAudio.kext - IOHDAudioCodecVendorID - 0x10ec0880 - IOPCIPrimaryMatch - 0x088010ec AudioAzaliaAudio.kext - IOHDAudioCodecVendorID - 0x10ec0880 - IOPCIPrimaryMatch - 0x27d88086 I also tried the AppleHDA.kext changes however I always got a kernel panic using that method. If anyone has anything else I can try it would be greatly appreciated.
