Sound Solution for 889a for SL

 

needs DSDT patch

 

decompile your DSDT.aml to DSDT.dsl (you can use iaslme program. just drag your DSDT.aml on icon of iaslme)

 

Edit your DSDT.dsl file with textedit

 

a. search and replace all AZAL entires with HDEF

 

b. replace the whole section Device (HDEF) above the line : "Name (BUFA, ResourceTemplate ()" with the following:

 

Device (HDEF)

{

Name (_ADR, 0x001B0000)

Method (_PRW, 0, NotSerialized)

{

Return (Package (0x02)

{

0x0D,

0x05

})

}

 

Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)

{

Store (Package (0x0A)

{

"built-in",

Buffer (One)

{

0x00

},

 

"codec-id",

Buffer (0x04)

{

0x89, 0x08, 0xEC, 0x10

},

 

"layout-id",

Buffer (0x04)

{

0x0C, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00

},

 

"device-type",

Buffer (0x11)

{

"ALC889a"

},

 

"PinConfigurations",

Buffer (One)

{

0x00

}

}, Local0)

DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))

Return (Local0)

}

 

Method (DTGP, 5, NotSerialized)

{

If (LEqual (Arg0, Buffer (0x10)

{

/* 0000 */ 0xC6, 0xB7, 0xB5, 0xA0, 0x18, 0x13, 0x1C, 0x44,

/* 0008 */ 0xB0, 0xC9, 0xFE, 0x69, 0x5E, 0xAF, 0x94, 0x9B

}))

{

If (LEqual (Arg1, One))

{

If (LEqual (Arg2, Zero))

{

Store (Buffer (One)

{

0x03

}, Arg4)

Return (One)

}

 

If (LEqual (Arg2, One))

{

Return (One)

}

}

}

 

Store (Buffer (One)

{

0x00

}, Arg4)

Return (Zero)

}

}

 

 

 

Save your DSDT.dsl and compile it to DSDT.aml (just drag it on icon of iaslme again)

 

 

put your patched DSDT.aml file in /Extra

 

put the attached 889a.kext (this is a combined plist) in /Extra/Extensions

 

Tip: remove Voodoohda

 

remove your Caches:

 

sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Caches

 

rebuild kextcache:

 

sudo kextcache -v 1 -t -l -m /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/Extensions.mkext /System/Library/Extensions

 

reboot and you´re done

 

You will have all inputs and outputs working (personally not tested digital) headphones no autoswitching

(has 2 sound assertions at boot)

 

Credit goes to Proengin for the DSDT part and ffosilva for the combined plist

first off all Tnx for the info, but unfortunately I can´t get the sound thru the green jack only

the Black ???? OS X 10.6.8 but the same under 10.9.2 but thats another story.

 

any idea??

So, does anyone have the microphone working? I have a GA-P35-DS3R and the only thing that doesn't work is the bloody Microphone.

"And I scrolled down again until I saw DspFunc6ChOutput. It was interesting. I tried to search information how to on Google but nothing."
