M0r1d1n Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 @Locked Down AFAIK it's tailored specifically for the Aorus Master Z390, so it should be fine, but I don't get why it differs from the one I created. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eXtReeM Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 (edited) Guys, I have a sound issue. My rear sound port not working. Shows that sound exist, but silence is the answer All other port work excellent, 2 line-outs, front HP jack, mic, line, except Internal Speakers jack. In Windows, it works correctly. I use the last config from 01.06. Any suggestions? Edited July 6, 2020 by eXtReeM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt-uk Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Hi @M0r1d1n Are you able to share the files you have amended with some basic instructions and scenarios to test their effectiveness? Keen to hear if you make any other progress with the lag issues too. @eXtReeM i wonder if @M0r1d1n's SSDT-PLUG.aml and other amends may help with your audio ports/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M0r1d1n Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I just restored 10.14.6 from a backup and everything is working perfectly again. Using OpenCore 0.5.9 though (I had 0.5.4 or 0.5.5 earlier). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you going to be able to share the files that you changed from the stock AudioGod EFI with perhaps a quick how0to guide or is it as simple as copy and paste?

Cheers I have not identified it as a Catalina issue. It could as well be a problem with OpenCore, any of the additional req. files or the configuration. Not at this time. I'll still be working on the config to fine tune it and make sure everything's working exactly as I want.

matt-uk Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Hi all Slightly off topic, but could anyone share their overclocking bios settings? I have never overclocked before and i have followed a couple of guides online but many seem to be for the old bios and every time my system wont post until i clear the cmos. I know that every CPU will require slightly different settings but if anyone could advise what they did as a starting point it would be great. Thanks in advance all Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keen to hear if you make any other progress with the lag issues too. @eXtReeM i wonder if @M0r1d1n's SSDT-PLUG.aml and other amends may help with your audio ports/ SSDT-Plug has nothing to do with audio, what’s the problem with audio anyway? One Thing I have noticed is if you restart from windows to Catalina your loose sound but it won’t happen via a cold. The way to fix that is to uninstall the windows drivers for Realtek audio and then reinstall the drivers again but let windows instal it’s own generic drivers and do not use realteks drivers and the problem will be solved, the reason this happens is because the Z390 Master has a separate DAC and when you use the proper drivers in windows it uses the DAC and then when you boot into MacOS it sees the separate dac and hasn’t got a clue what to do with it causing sound to stop working, A second problem that happens with external audio devices is it can be choppy and or cut out while doing heavy playback via Logic Audio or Cubase etc etc etc. The reason for this is a fault on the gigabyte bios where the motherboard has a built in serial port that has no option to disable it and it causes conflicts with audio causing the above I mentioned and also stops the Apple Watch from unlocking the Hack. There is a fix but its not officially out yet so I don't post it on the thread but if you update the bios to the very latest revision you can then go in to the bios and disable the dam annoying serial port. If this is indeed your problem then update the bios to this revision and then load in my profile with all the correct settings dialled in and the pesky serial port disabled. Z390AORUSMASTER.zip - Bios F11e Default Blue.zip - F11e MSR unlocked profile and bios settings. @M0r1d1n My SSDT-Plug differs to the example one as it was done from scratch and not using there example and done specifically for the master board by myself. They both work fine but I like mine . Haha Edited July 17, 2020 by AudioGod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have on-board audio disabled because I use Bowers & Wilkins MM-1 — external USB speakers with a built-in sound card — and have no need for the internal audio. I have occasional (very rare) choppy audio under Mojave on the MM-1s. I wonder if the serial port also interfered with choppy BT audio under Catalina. Where is this BIOS from? Can you give us some more details? Latest on Gigabyte's site is F11c... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you give us some more details? Latest on Gigabyte's site is F11c... I got it directly from the gigabyte engineers. I actually have a newer version with built in msr unlock and fusion as options in the bios but for you lot this version is better to use as its tried and tested by many. try it and use my unlock profile and your find your choppy audio will be no more.

There are always risks when updating the BIOS so only update it if it adds things you would benefit from, or removes a problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
