Hi, i have updated my bios to EFI beta and everything is working (without DSDT), 2 channel stereo (as internal speakers) audio also works with applehda rollback and hdaenabler but i cant get multi channel analogue sound (agregate device) in audio/midi setup... only 2 channel stereo sound :( any help with that?


Thanks and big ups for new site! Its awsome :)

See Universal 5.1-channel analogue audio

okay i did that and still cant get my other 2 line outputs to work in audio/midi setup when i create agregate device...

toledas link didnt help at all because i know how to setup agregate device as 5.1 channel analog audio... problem is in kext... not working... when i had DSDT and patched applehda for alc889 5.1 analog sound worked like charm... any other solutions maybe?
 
i just figured out.. as i mentioned im NOT using DSDT and when i was using DSDT on old bios my layout IDs were 0x21, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00 for 3 port (rear) analog audio and my 5.1 channel surround worked that way... my motherboard has only 3 ports rear and 2 ports front.. now with EFI bios and ofcourse without DSDT i looked into ioregistryexplorer and my layout IDs are 0x79, 0x03, 0x00, 0x00.. how can I change layout IDs to 0x21, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00 when i got no DSDT?? can layout IDs be changed inside kext maybe or only in DSDT?

thanks for help :)
 
no way.. no one has this problem? cmon :(
