ALC898 Audio Installation on macOS Sierra.

[icetech3]

I know this is a older thread but i just had to say THANK YOU! spent 2 hours trying to get audio on this Dell 8700 (free i7.. who am i to complain) and followed your steps.. perfect.. thanks a ton This was on alc898

After a lot of trial and error this is how it worked for me permanently.

• Copy „HDAEnabler1.kext“ to /System/Library/Extensions/ (https://github.com/toleda/audio_kext_enabler)
• Repair kext files with Kext Wizard, file permissions have to be changed
• Reboot
• Check with DPCI Manager if „Realtek ALC898“ is detected
• Open „audio_cloverALC-120_v1.0b0.command“ (https://github.com/toleda/audio_CloverALC)
• Confirm Realtek ALC898: y
• Clover Audio ID injection: y
• Use Audio ID: 1
• Reboot

Hope this may help you!

Best!

Helped a ton on my Asrock Z77 Extreme 4 mobo. Nothing else seemed to make it stick
