omnichad Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I've got a successful install going of Snow Leopard, and everything except sound working. My motherboard is a Biostar TA780G M2+ with a SB700 Southbridge, using the ALC662 sound codec. So far, nothing works for me to get sound. I have tried VoodooHDA 64-bit, and get choppy, static-filled noisy audio. I have tried HDEFenabler which does nothing for me. I tried to patch my DSDT and that failed miserably. 200+ errors that I don't know how to fix. My leopard install works fine. I had manually patched AppleHDA.kext using instructions long lost. But of course I can't use that patched kext in 64-bit Snow Leopard. Does anyone have working sound with an ALC662 sound chip? Anyone know what I'm missing?

There is a script to fix choppy sound after sleep by unloading and loading voodoohda kext. It is really easy. Its called sleepwalker and you need a custom script to get that setup. 2 minutes from start to finish.
