Hi,

 

I have a Gigabyte B85M-D2V motherboard with ALC 887 chip and with AppleALC the sound doesn't work on the back panel only front panel. I have 3 ports on the back (Mic, Audio, Line In) (this order from left to right) and 2 on the front (sound and mic). I don't really care about the front panel but how can I get the back panel working ?

 

I tried the scripts on the Audio section but only the front panel works with audio without mic. I tried setting audio layout from 1-3 nothing.

 

How can I sort this out ?

 

I posted in Audio section and nothing usefull.

 

Here are some debug files:

choose one method dont mixed of them

1. AppleALC must vanilla AppleHDA and clean patched audio in KextsToPatch

2. Toleda method just remove AppleALC

 

 

I tried the the first one:

 

in config.plist under kexts to patch I don't have anything.

 

Layout 1: I have audio on back panel but no mic on front or back panel

Layout 2: I have audio on front panel but no mic on front or back panel

Layout 3: No audio but mic on back panel.

 

So this is a layout problem ? How can I patch it or something ?

Have you tried this: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/297562-applehdapatcher/ ?

 

I have ALC887 and everything works with Clover and dummyHDA created with Mirone's tool.

 

Now in that folder on the desktop what do I need to install or copy to the EFI partition ? (sorry I am a noob) 

You need to copy clover fixes to config.plist and also aDummyHDA.kext. I think that aDummyHDA works only in /System/Library/Extensions so you have to install it using EasyKext Utility (or any other kext tool) and fix permissions. EasyKext Utility does this automatically.

I did it ! But just the front panel sound works nothing more. Any idea ? I moved the AppleALC file on the EFI partition and the back panel was working (showing built in at the sperakers and the mic) BUT after I rebooted once more is dead..... (front panel works (audio and mic is dead)

 

Why after one more reboot after install is dead ?

No idea, sorry. I only know how to follow the instructions. :) I hope you will find the solution. Which layout did you use? In my case, with 3 (erm...ports?) on the back, it was layout 5.

 

The same layout: 5 :(

 

I am still not get it why doesn't work....
