Help with Audio on an Asus X99-A II Sierra System

[mm2margaret]

Toleda:

I've tried to solve this myself, and I can't. I have no sound from my system. I've tried different output ports, different speakers, the headphone port, nothing seems to work. (Well, not nothing - if I use a USB audio adapter, that works - which should prove that the speakers and audio cable I'm using does work).

My system specs: Asus X99-A II, (ALC1150 audio), Sierra 10.12.3, 48GB memory, GTX 980 (EVGA) display card, Broadcom Wifi (BCM4360)

I tried your audio_codecdetect_v2.1.command and it completes successfully (this would be realtekALC method, I believe).

I've attached a copy of results from your audio_codecdetect.command script. It shows everything appears to be normal and working. But still no sound.

I've attached a copy of the IO Registry report from IO Registry Explorer, my EFI directory from Clover (with the config.plist I'm using), and the port I'm using on the motherboard is the green one (I believe that's an analog port) on the back of the motherboard - I've also tried the black audio port with no results.

Much.
X99 patch missing, ee /Realtek ALC AppleHDA/Post #1:

Add controller patch.

Okay, this config.plist shows the X99 patch applied, but still no sound. Do I need some combination of the X99 patch and some other patch?

Why did you install both patches?
Remove 10.9.x X99 patch

So, like this? If so, still no sound....(and, thank you for working with me on this!)

Attach new files from latest boot plus Clover boot log.

Attach new files from latest boot plus Clover boot log.

Can I assume that if I run bdmesg that will give me the boot log? Because if that's not the case, I would guess I don't know how to get a boot log from clover. And I looked - a lot. Both here and on Insanely Mac, and bdmesg seemed like the best option.
