I have tried all available layout ID, Tried to edit it myself with pinconfiguration, Nothing worked for me. I dont even have HDMI audio working in my device. I am currently using layout-id 99 which workes with internal speaker and internal mic. My headphone jack is detected as an SPDIF connector and it's working. The mic jack is not fuctioning properly as well. I was looking forward to get the HDMI audio working so that i can use my TV along with its speaker system for multimedia purposed. i have tried various methods to fix HDMI, i dont know what i am missing. I have opened another thread in tonymacx, still havint got any help so far. Is ther anyone faced similar issue? BTW my HDMI is working over USB C connector with UCB-C to HDMI converter. Check the thread in tonymacx as well. https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/usb-c-to-hdmi-audio-not-working-alc898-alc899-on-msi-gs73vr.306261/ config (1).plist I'll bet VoodooHDA will work with your HDMI audio. It does mine when AppleALC above 1.4.9 stopped even showing up any longer. I was hoping since this supposedly is the support forum that someone would answer about it, but no. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alectardy98 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 (edited) hey, I just updated to bug sur with open core and everything works fine except my custom apple ALC from Macpeet, can someone tell me how I can fix this, all the info I can think of is linked below, including the apple ALC that I have been using in catalina. I was using Layout 15 AppleALC.kext.zip codec_dump.txt I also tried the latest Apple ALC with Layout 11, and it works kind of, but the mic does not work for the headphones and the headphones cracked and do not work well Also, My headphone microphone never worked, so if I need to fix things I might as well do the hole thing, please let me know! I would really appreciate any leads Edited November 22, 2020 by Alectardy98 relevant info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacPeet Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 @ Alectardy98 This codec is not in the release. I think you weren't entirely satisfied at the time. try this: trial1_alc289_layoutID15_ManualMode_BigSur.zip @nnkn Private messaging is not the way to go.

I found your German tutorial on how to do this and man there is a lot that goes into it! I want to let you know that the manual mode works just like the old one did. Where everything works except for the headphone microphone!. The switching mode one does not work for me at all? Ill just use the manual mode one for now. Thanks again!

MacPeet Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Nice when it works. My old German tutorial "Patch AppleHDA" is of course no longer in use today. However, some points for Patch Codec in AppleALC are the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's okay - I figured out that it's best to ignore the Xcode suggestion to update the project settings which is what enables the code signing. Builds fine without the code signing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gatesjunior Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) So quick observation and maybe you will tell me you guys aren't there yet. If I install release 1.4.9 of the AppleALC on my Intel NUC 10 with the ALC256 layout-id: 23, it will autodetect the HDMI Audio as an output channel and list it in the outputs. However, moving up from 1.4.9 to any other version, it no longer even shows up in the output list at all ? I've looked at a diff between 1.5.0 and 1.4.9 and there was a mention of a couple of new layout-id's added to this audio device and also a comment about not reading non-apple firmware fix. Could you take a look at this and possibly let me know what change is causing this not to work now ? Hello ???? Is there any support on this forum ?? Supposedly the Github says to come here but I have yet to receive any responses.. Edited November 30, 2020 by gatesjunior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe ID 7 has a conflict with two "orange" ?! Please do a codec dump with a Linux Live version (example Ubuntu) for more details! This is better for a new codec for you. Sorry for this SUPER late reply. Finally got the codec dump. I would like to add that I have the AudioEngine D1 (DAC/headphone amp) plugged in to the USB port together with the SPDIF. The AudioEngine D1 can use either the USB or the SPDIF as sound input. It is powered off the USB. With ID-7, the USB works as a sound input but SPDIF doesn't (It does show up). With ID-99, SPDIF works as sound input but USB doesn't (It does show up). With ID-99: This shows up (This is with the headphone jack used. It auto-detects the front headphone jack and renames it as such). So Digital out works (SPDIF in ID-99) but USB AudioEngine D1 doesn't. With ID-7, all sound jack shows, USB works but SPDIF doesn't. Incidentally, USB and SPDIF BOTH works under Ubuntu ! ID-87 is strangely imperfect - the USB and Digital out both don't work. (My motherboard is the Gigabyte H97-HD3, ID-87 was created for Gigabyte Z97-HD3. Nearly identical motherboards apart from overclocking ability in chipsets only). Working analog jacks with working Digital out/SPDIF from ID-99 would be PERFECT.

Riley Freeman Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I had an issue with AppleALC on my X79 that I've found mentioned elsewhere online with no real solution. Versions of AppleALC after 1.2.8 inject HDMI audio and this causes issues with certain configs. My X79 with a GeForce 210 being one of these. The result is a long delay during boot while IOHDACodecFunction times out. Most posts suggest sticking to AppleALC 1.2.8 but this won't work for current versions of macOS. Anyway, in case anyone else finds themselves in this situation, the fix is to disable the HDMI port using the class-code property. I picked this up from the section of the OpenCore guide on disabling GPUs. Here's the relevant SSDT code I'm using to disable it for my 210. I'm injecting the HDAU device and setting it's class-code to FFFFFFFF which prevents AppleALC from detecting it as a HDMI audio device. Device (HDAU) { Name (_ADR, One) Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized) { If (LEqual (Arg2, Zero)) { Return (Buffer (One) { 0x03 }) } Return (Package (0x02) { "class-code", Buffer (0x04) { 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF } }) } } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalkmann Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Hello, I would like to report a recurring Kernel Panic on Ice Lake + Big Sur + AppleALC platforms. In addition to many reported cases of KP on hardware similar to my configuration (Lenovo S145 i7 1065G7 + alc230), the same panic has already been reported on laptops of different brand, processor and codec, such as the Acer a514-53 with 1035G1 CPU and alc256 codec. Apparently the Kernel Panic is related to the microphone and is easily reproducible trying to use Siri, or VoiceOver in the keyboard settings, for example. Using exactly the same Kext, the same existing layout (20 or 13), the problem does not occur in Catalina 10.15.7. Here is the KP report in Big Sur 11.1: panic(cpu 4 caller 0xffffff80023ed0e6): Kernel trap at 0xffffff80055142e9, type 6=invalid opcode, registers: CR0: 0x0000000080010033, CR2: 0x000000010fcfe000,

As a side note, I have the same codec and could never quite get it to work properly, my speaker out works for a few seconds then nothing, no errors, nothing, very strange. everything else worked fine though, and voodoohda works, so it must be something the apple driver is doing.

As a side note, I have the same codec and could never quite get it to work properly, my speaker out works for a few seconds then nothing, no errors, nothing, very strange. everything else worked fine though, and voodoohda works, so it must be something the apple driver is doing. Hey, @hugodlc, sorry for late response, had no email notification set. UPDATE Ok, I've installed VoodooHDA (with no errors) but got no audio devices after reboot. Verified that AppleALC was removed from kext folder and OC/kernel/add configurations. I notice Big Sur has no usr/local/bin/ folder, only usr/bin/ (usr/local/ is completelly empty). And, btw, how to dump the codec with VoodooHDA? Got partially VoodooHDA to work after follow solution 2 from olarila forum: Speakers: workiing Headphones: working Onboard mic: not working ---------------------------- Problem: kext doesn't work (usually when there's more than one audio card or the video card has HDMI audio). Solution: use solution 2 for kernel panic problem above. If you want to use both cards, create one entry for each card in IOKitPersonalities. Solution 2: edit Info.plist, replace the key IOPCIClassMatch by IOPCIPrimaryMatch and put the PCI ID of your audio card in string. ---------------------------- Device used: 0X34C88086 Device 0x34C88086.rtf Edited February 3, 2021 by biscate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
najeeb_anwer Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I have macOS 11.2 running on a Dell XPS 13 9300 (Ice Lake). I have a USB-C monitor connected via a USB-C cable that also supplies power to the system. It all seems to work fine until I try to use AppleALC. If I use any valid layout-id for ALC289 (the codec for this system), the system freezes after boot is complete but before the login window - but only if the USB-C monitor is connected. If I boot the system with just the internal display then the system does not freeze and AppleALC works fine. VoodooHDA works with the external monitor connected, but I would prefer to use AppleALC. I thought that the problem might be caused by the code in AppleALC/Whatevergreen that converts DP to HDMI for HDMI audio to work, so I disabled the HDMI patches but that did not make any difference. I would appreciate any help to figure this out. Or, if this is a problem with AppleALC dealing with USB-C monitors, I would be happy to try out test versions of AppleALC.

Hiko Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 I am running Big Sur on Lenovo M920s, AppleALC installed and identified the Audio card as Realtek ALC235. It works fine with the internal speaker, but it doesn't work if I use the external speakers plugged into the rear jack. I boot into Linux and it shows me the audio card is actually ALC233.
