kitmac Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 voodohda, efi strings, or tarugas patch....??? voodoo seems to work nicely until you put the machine to sleep. Sound distortion upon wake ..... Tarugas patch gives me a KP as soon it patches applehda.kext Not too familiar with the efi string method for sound.....

leslieking Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I have the same motherboard, EP35-DS3L. To be honest, ALCxxx sound quality sucks, even after patching (DSDT, taruga, etc...) I'm searching for an USB sound adapter / alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm searching for an USB sound adapter / alternative. a good sounding USB dongle that is cheap that said, I have found that it sometimes has issues with Mic input, but I think thats a bad mic not the dongle. Good luck and happy listening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramer2k Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I'm using DSDT for Audio / GFX / Lan - Audio works with VoodooHDA. But sleep is still a problem. It sleeps fine, but when it wakes up, it freaks out and gives me the ole' beach ball of death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leslieking Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I attached two kext 'AppleHDA.kext' and 'HDAEnabler.kext' for leopard. I like them better than DSDT and VoodooHDA! If someone port the "AppleHDA.kext" for SL 64bit.. I would be very grateful! - Altough the sound quality is not as good as DSDT, the output volume is much higher. - Completly noise-free. kextsleo32.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackosx Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 For the EP45-DS3L I swear by DSDT (Koalala's ACPI Patcher - Selecting Realtek ALC888-0, and checking HDEF box) then adding one of these attached LegacyHDA's, from tmongkol's thread, in to /E/E.

dabla Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I've done the DSDT patch with audio, network and graphics (last 2 work perfectly) for my EP35-DS4, which has a Realtek ALC889A chipset. I've tried with all possible HDAEnabler's ect without luck, also with the 3 kext's from cparm's package mentioned above without luck. The only way I'm able to get sound is via ALCinject.kext located under /S/L/E (with -x32). I thought the DSDT patch just made injetors unnecessary? What am I doing wrong?

derpuma Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 @dabla I can confirm your exp. I have had the same problems. dsdt without probs - no legacy kexts work! Only ALCInject worked... for me too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabla Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Hi derpuma, actually i can change volume of my different outputs via ALCinject but I can't get/hear any sound... so I'm still messing around... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
