macOS Sierra Public Beta is Now Available

[delingren]

I've got Sierra up and running on my GA-Z170N-Gaming 5 but I'm having problems getting audio working. IOreg shows HDEF layout-id as <01 00 00 00>. I know the HDA patches aren't supported in Sierra yet. How is everyone getting audio working?

Are you using the integrated HD 530 graphics? I have the mATX version of the motherboard and I'm having problems with sleep/wake/shutdown on El Cap, like everyone else. I wonder if it's working on Sierra. Thanks.

Everything works on my both systems except sleep/wake, developer preview 1 also worked, got working audio ALC1150, internal USB sound speakers and also monitor speakers via HDMI.. for ALC1150 or alternatives you should search on internet I cannot provide links it might be against rules, I'm not sure.

Well, unless you searched for "ALC1150 or alternatives", I'm pretty sure sharing what you typed in the search box isn't going to bring down the banhammer. Short of posting the actual link, I'm not sure if doing so with the address or at least the site might, though. Any Moderators care to chime in with where the line is drawn?

Well friend, from your reply it would be shorter for you to open Google search and type (ALC1150 for 10.12) or whatever your ALC is, if you have success on doing that then you will find what you need.
Its an App called AppleHDA Patcher from InsanelyMac and of course a tutorial on How-To patch, just drop the vanilla AppleHDA and your config.plist into it, select your audio ALC and output layouts then click Patch, after that install the patched kext with any kext installer.
I hope now you can do it.

I just ran MultiBeast for El Capitan (v8.2.3) selecting the ALC1150 audio driver/kext and the 100 Series Audio. Sierra's audio works fine.

You don't have to upgrade but you can test, I installed Sierra on a separate SSD and kept my main OS X which is El Capitan of course, if you don't have an extra SSD then make a partition. I even didn't installed Clover on Sierra SSD because it boots with Clover of El Capitan.
Plus, Sierra is a beta and won't run all apps as El Capitan.

I went with the other method because MultiBeast didn't worked for me in DP1, then I kept using the same patch even with public beta as I thought it was still the only solution for now.
Anyway, thanks for telling me that because I always prefer MultiBeast.

Thanks. I'll give it a look-see. Tried your config patches but still no sound (copied my functioning El Cap config and AppleHDA patched from the ALC1150 method over but no-go).

Some tips:
1. You must patch the original (not patched) AppleHDA from Sierra, using already patched of Sierra or functional AppleHDA from El Capitan won't work, after doing that install the patched AppleHDA of Sierra with any kext installer.
2. If still not working then copy the patched AppleHDA to EFI/Clover/kexts/Other folder, keep in mind to set ''inject Kexts'' to ''Yes'' in ''System Parameters'' of your ''config.plist'', use Clover Configurator for that.
3. if still not working then try Stork suggestion in post#57, this guy knows a lot.
4. if still not working then an external USB sound will be good temporary solution till the new MultiBeast comes out.
Good Luck.
