termitatibetana Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Hi guys! This is the installation method I followed for my ASUS motherboard, taken from the excellent OSx86 Wiki (http://wiki.osx86pro....php/HCL_10.7.2) Using iATKOS L2: Crimera 1.7 VoodooHDA Ev0reboot Mac App Store, iCloud, Facetime WORK with EthernetBuiltin in smbios ( I used MacPro3,1) Graphic Enabler Lnx2Mac's RealtekRTL81xx Ethernet Select AHCI and set in Bios AHCI Mode FakeSMC The guide recommends installing the VoodooHDA driver but, since I was given several versions at installation time, I chose them all. I don't remember but I think the versions were 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, ... and so on. So, now system sound effects are working but I can hardly hear them over the general hissing and constant noise when I insert my headphones in the front audio jack (green). I've tried other "output" sound options from the system preferences and they seem to work, but the unpleasant noise just won't go away. I don't know what could be wrong. Has anyone encountered a similar problem and has solved it? My audio is REALTEK ALC892. Thanks guys.

theeJD Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Seriously, what is the point of telling us you solved it but not how you solved it? 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/274992-realtek-alc892-hissing-sound-os-x-lion/#findComment-1801642 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaymus Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Sure would have been nice to know the solution.. As I too have this problem. I guess thanks for pointing out it's solvable.. ha ha ha.. -- EDITED -- I found a solution that seems to have worked very well for me: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/255249-finaly-got-audio-working-alc892-msi-870a-g54-mainboard/ The jist: 1) Install VoodooHDA 2.7.3 2) Edit the VoodooHDA.kext's plist to change the "iGain" value to "0". I also found this comment, I never tried it: Plug in a 3.5 mm headphone or any type of jack into the back pink microphone header. The fuzz should go away. I'll add that I've been listening to music on my alc892 while writing this, I'm getting very very rare, sparse little crackles/pops. Not sure if it's the audio source content, my headphones or something like an improperly configured buffer in the driver (probably not that, but kind of resembles that). 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/274992-realtek-alc892-hissing-sound-os-x-lion/#findComment-1897358 Share on other sites More sharing options...
carbo178 Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Hi all, the ALC892 work fine with patched AppleHDA and HDAEnabler (if you don't use DSDT) 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/274992-realtek-alc892-hissing-sound-os-x-lion/#findComment-1897372 Share on other sites More sharing options...
theconnactic Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Finally found a solution for the problem. And i finally found one of the biggest problems of the OSX86 scene. But i'll keep it to myself, as you did. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/274992-realtek-alc892-hissing-sound-os-x-lion/#findComment-1897382 Share on other sites More sharing options...
