Hi!

It doesn't work with Mavericks, volume bar, output and input are enabled and there but no sound!

 

1. Laptop model/Motherboard model: GA-Z97M-DS3H.F7 Rev:1.1

2. Codec name: AppleALC 887 1.0.19 and earlier versions for Realtek ALC887
3. Layout used: 1
4. OS X versions you tried: EL CAPITAN-Work, Sierra-Work, Mavericks-Don't work
5. Autogenerated Info.plist: Info.plist.zip

 

Hi, I'm trying to get sound working in Alienware 13 R3. It has an ALC298 that seems that is working for other people using AppleALC and layout-id 13. Setting that layout-id and using AppleALC I'm able to get the device detected, and the mic working, I also get a volume slider and the device appears in the system report. But whenever I try to play anything the app won't progress. It seems that the audio is unable to be streamed through the device, and just block the app. I've tried different output configurations (16bit, 24bit, 44100, 48000, etc) using the midi control app, but was unable to make it work. Also tried layout-ids 1, 2, 3 and 11 and with all of them I didn't get any device.

 

I'm in OSX 10.12.5, with AppleALC 1.1.1 and I'm injecting the layout id through DSDT patching (also tried through clover). Running the audio_codecdetect command I get: 

 

Onboard audio codec

Device: Not supported
Realtek: 0x10ec0298
Name: Realtek ALC298
Audio ID: Not supported
Current Audio ID: 13 (valid: 1, 2, or 3)
 
Any idea??
 
Thanks

 

I have an Alienware 13 R3 as well, mine is a Kabylake  Core i7 7700hq with a 100 series chipset. Because of this We can get everything working in in terms of pinconfig and headphone detection but will never have any sound output. I tried Toleda's fixes but the clover patch will cause a kernel panic, and the replacement AppleHDA will make anything sound related beach ball.  Of course this is because the kabylake cpu is pared with a skylake chipset. The only solution I was able to come up with was to create a custom voodoohda kext that has all the pin configs of the 13 R3 in the plist. If you would like to use it please inject layout 11 in clover. I have headphones working however detection is not. 

 

If anyone can help me with the Kabylake CPU and Skylake Chipset, no sound  issue, please let me know.

If you would like to use it please inject layout 11 in clover.

 

Layout-id injection for VoodooHDA :w00t: ? OK... That's something new...

Do you use FakeCPUID 0x0506e3? Provide IOReg and DarwinDumper reports.

You're right Layout ID's are useless for VoodooHDA. 

Yes I must use FakeCPUID 0x0506e3, otherwise it won't boot.

Hi. I thought you need help with AppleALC not working on your laptop :). I need DarwinDumper and IOReg without VoodooHDA installed to determine the problem!

Hi!

I updated the AppleALC to the 1.1.1 version, and same problem, Sierra work but Mavericks no, anyone can help to fix this problem?

All pretty simple. I've combined various guides and resources, found the missing scripts from a few Russian guides and translated everything into English.

I've created a GitHub project for it here --> https://github.com/F0x1c/AppleALC_Instructions

Just do not forget to give credits to their authors, taking into consideration that you made an "Mix" guides and tutorials that others wrote, so you can't take them as being of his authorship.

My sierra 10.12.4 on alienware 15 R3 with ALC298 have this same issue.

Tried applehda patcher & applealc, even with my custom layout/platforms/pinconfigs, the laptop just wouldn't make a sound.

 

So we kaby lakes are doomed for now? :(

 

Edit:

ALC298.zip containes codec dump from linux, layout.xml & platforms.xml & info.plist & pinconfigs I modified to patch applealc.

use latest version of RehabMan-FakePCIID

OMG, you are my hero, after install the latest FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_Intel_HDMI_Audio.kext, my alienware finally produces sound.

(Not sure if it's my pathmaps or pinconfigs are wrong, speakers behaves normally, but headphone makes strange noises when playing audio)

 

Edit: oh the guy on github also have this problem with headphone, so it's not just me.

Use bootargs -lilubeta -alcbeta

 

That worked perfectly fine for me, too. Thank you. :)

 

One question: any idea why doesn't it work anymore without the flags? I know it's only been 2 days since Apple released High Sierra. I'm only curious if we know the cause of the issue.
