Slice Posted October 10, 2020 Author Share Posted October 10, 2020 I continue to support VoodooHDA. Now version 2.9.5 with some security check compiled under BigSur and now is working here. Be sure your sound device is not HDEF. This is the way to exclude conflict between AppleHDA and VoodooHDA because AppleHDA will be loaded only if the device named HDEF and if HDMI device is called HDAU. For VoodooHDA they can be any other names. For example ALC device will be HDAS. HDMI device on AMD graphics card will be named as HDMI.

secutor Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Hi, i'm trying to get my soundblaster x-fi running, but changing "IOPCIClassMatch" to "IOPCIPrimaryMatch" and then "DeviceID + VendorID" shows no audiodevice at all. It's working with 2.8.7, 2.8.8 but all outputs only play (the same) when "Rear Green" is selected. Any Tipps for this? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted October 10, 2020 Author Share Posted October 10, 2020 Creative Sound devices are not HDA devices and not compatible with VoodooHDA that written to support HDA standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted October 13, 2020 Author Share Posted October 13, 2020 I am not sure but probably VoodooHDA requires less security for system. The flag CSR_ALLOW_DEVICE_CONFIGURATION must be set in csr config. I used mask 0x285 for success in BigSur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacKonsti Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Hello @Slice thank you for continuing the VoodooHDA support, please, if I may: I have a couple of quick questions to clarify how latest v2.9.6. works and behaves. On my NUC10 using Core i7-10710U I have (per lspci -nn) the Intel Corporation Comet Lake UHD 630 Graphics [8086:9bca] and Intel Corporation High Definition Audio Controller [8086:02c8] or in other terms ALC256 (ALC3246). My audio device keeps the original name HDAS in IORegistry (since AppleALC is not used). Using OpenCore 0.6.7 I have disabled AppleALC.kext and enabled VoodooHDA.kext and without any other parameter or setting, it seems to load OK: I get Headphones and HDMI Audio indications in Sound (and Microphone). The analog output works, tested it. But the digital audio doesn't seem to work... Please, do recent VoodooHDA versions work with Intel iGPU digital audio? My online search found mixed results... Do we still need to disable Apple's vanilla AppleHDA.kext via AppleHDADisabler.kext in Catalina and BigSur? It is mentioned in old posts, but I cannot confirm this lately. Is this disabler still needed? Since the VoodooHDA.kext loads OK (via OpenCore) any idea why we need to still set CSR_ALLOW_DEVICE_CONFIGURATION? Following that Chrome update fiasco on macOS, I decided to make like vanilla Mac and secure everything... Do we need to confirm this setting exists hda-gfx=onboard-1 on both IGPU and HDAS or is it totally ignored by VoodooHDA? Many thanks, спасибо NUC10-UHD630-ALC256-dump.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 1. I don't know what to do for Intel iGPU audio. It looks like working for me and I have no other information. 2. As the device is HDAS you don't need to disable AppleHDA. 3. Probably CSR_ALLOW_DEVICE_CONFIGURATION is not needed. Test? 4. hda-gfx is ignored by VoodooHDA.

AntarcticP Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Hi Slice any plans yet to update VoodooHDA to get it working under Big Sur 11.3? Hope you can manage, still the only way to get sound working on my old AMD FX hackintosh. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted April 29, 2021 Author Share Posted April 29, 2021 I manage to make it working under Big Sur. As well as in Sonoma 1. Set restricted enabled SIP <key>CsrActiveConfig</key> <string>0x0A85</string> 2. Delete other old sound kext (VoodooHDA or AppleALC) from EFI folder. 3. Reboot 4. Copy the kext into LE. Open Terminal.app and enter here sudo cp -R /path_to_kext/VoodooHDA.kext /Library/Extensions 4a. Attention! If you copied the kext other way then you have to repair permissions sudo chown -R root:wheel /Library/Extensions/VoodooHDA.kext 5. In the case of Ventura this is not enough. You should also load the kext sudo kextutil -v /Library/Extensions/VoodooHDA.kext 6. The system ask you to look into System Preferences -> Security and enable here VoodooHDA 4. Reboot 5.
