tiki16 Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Hello, I just installed kalyway 10.5.2. Everything seems to have gone well except that i have no sound. I installed ALC883audio.mpkg and still no sound. My board is a P5K / EPU and should work. Anyone have any ideas? Also my dvd drive doesn't eject and doesn't appear to have any power, but does in windows. thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/120969-no-sound-asus-p5k-epu/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
xanketsu Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I have the same board as yours, and got the same issue. I tried the patch from wiki.taruga.net (it's currently down, unfortunately) named "Taruga_AD1988b_rev4_Installer" and the system profiler now showing Device ID & Audio ID under Audio, but won't show any Available Devices. I tried to plug in Headphones/ speakers but it went undetected. In other words, no such luck for us ... yet. Related to your DVD drive - I have two DVD drive: one is SATA, the other is IDE. The latter doesn't work in my case. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/120969-no-sound-asus-p5k-epu/#findComment-857047 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiotu Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I have the same board..the board has alc883 so xanketsu why were u using taruga_AD1988b?is it for the same ALC883... Well..originally i used the kalyway's 10.5.2 original driver package for alc883 and it works just fine, and then i replaced the driver with TARUGA's alc883 3 line out kext for 5.1 channel and it works too.. try this link: http://www.mediafire.com/?j0lnmnwwgms or check the discussion forum: http://www.insanelymac.com/lofiversion/ind...hp/t99815.html..

xanketsu Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Kiotu, I made my Hackintosh by installing Kalyway 10.5.1, and it was a bumpy installation. I spent hours tweaking the options to make it work, and the one time that finally work is coincidently when I didn't check the sound driver. From there I've been working on the "upgrades" manually: VGA (succeeded), 10.5.2 (succeeded), 9.2 Kernel (succeeded). For the sound department, I tried the running these following files to various effects: - Azalia_out.pkg: no effect (nothing in the system profiler) - ALC883Audio.mpkg: no effect - Taruga_AD1988b_rev4_Installer: Device ID & Audio ID shows up in the system profiler, but no available devices. I tried to plug in some headphones to any available holes, but it won't show up. So I guess my story is not as good as yours, unfortunately I haven't tried the ALC883-3LineOuts.zip, mainly because I don't know how to install these - also afraid that it will broke the installation. My current Hackintosh doesn't always successfully shutdown everytime, so I'm kind of worry here... P.S. This is just my guess, but maybe the error has something to do with me running those files back and forth (with restarting in between), so maybe it messed up the "kext" or something (I'm not realy literate on this matter). However I don't know how to "clean" those mess. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/120969-no-sound-asus-p5k-epu/#findComment-859194 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiki16 Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 Hey all, Thanks Kiotu for pointing me in the right direction. I installed the kext files ALCinject.kext and AppleHDA.kext with kext helper. System alert sounds work but if i play an mp3 through quicktime or itunes there is no sound?? Streaming radio and video has no sound as well. Xanketsu here is the link to d/l kext helper B7: http://www.cheetha.net/Kext_Helper/Software.html Thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/120969-no-sound-asus-p5k-epu/#findComment-859314 Share on other sites More sharing options...
xanketsu Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Tiki16, I'm afraid I hit the same wall with the KextHelper + ALCinject.kext & AppleHDA.kext. The outcome is the same as running Azalia_out.pkg & ALC883Audio.mpkg, which translate to nothing on the system profiler.

xanketsu Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Wait. Apparently, although there's nothing on the system profiler, the sound actually come out from the headphones. I haven't checked if the sound is 5.1 or just stereo, but I guess it's enough for now. Thanks for all the help! P.S: tiki16, mine works for system sound & everything else (playing movie, itunes, everything).
