No problem Toleda, you are doing an amazing work help to the hackintosh community

And the onboard audio works perfect as is usual, thanks
 
It may be a stupid question but, I'm trying to remove previous audio method and I've found the current AppleHDA.kext in the folder System>Library>Extensions but were do I get the native AppleHDA.kext?

Ok, seems to be quite difficult. I have High Sierra 10.13.3 on my MacBook. Same as I'm trying to install on my Hackintosh. Can't I just copy the AppleHDA.kext from there?

Hi @toleda Earlier today I noticed that I was still using an earlier version of your audio_cloverALC-130.command so I decided to reconfigure my audio from scratch. I followed your OP to the letter after which audio was working well again indeed.

I used the following files/method:

From your "config-audio_cloverALC+.plist" I selected the appropriate rename section, matching my Skylake build and mobo series being, "100/200/300-Series-Rename HDAS to HDEF" and copied that to my config.plist with xcode.

Then I placed your "SSDT-HDEF-HDAS-1.aml" into my Clover/APCI/patched folder, and restarted the computer.

Following the successful restart I applied your "audio_cloverALC-130_v0.4 command" shell script, answered all the prompts for my mobo and rebooted the comuter.

So far so good, audio was working, but in my Config.plist under SystemParameters > InjectKexts it changed "Detect" to "Yes" everytime the script is executed.

@RehabMan and others recommend that the value for "Injectkexts" should however be "Detect" so what should it be now ? If you require Yes ? and @RehabMan requires "Detect" then there is obviously a problem somewhere. :)

I checked your script and setting "InjectKexts" to yes is actually hard coded in that script.

It appears to me that "Detect" is required so that kexts in /L/E will get preference to be loaded instead of duplicate kexts that may also be present in the "/Clover/Kexts/other folder. These duplicate kexts are needed so that one is able to enter the Recovery partition when things have really gone wrong with High Sierra.

When I run my High Sierra with "InjectKexts" set to "Yes" then essential kexts will be loaded from /Clover/Kexts/other, bypassing the same essential kexts present in /L/E where these kexts would be running from inside the "kext cache". If I understand this all correctly loading essential kexts from "/Clover/Kexts/other" could indeed be a reason why a High Sierra system might suffer from occasional "lockups" when being woken from sleep.

I would very much appreciate if you could advise me how to approach this problem.

Thanks Henties

Hi @toleda thanks that filled the gap in my understanding of things. Just to confirm it does not matter what SystemParameters > InjectKexts is set to as long as "InjectKexts" under "Custom" is set to "Detect" AND FakeSMC.kext is in either /S/L/E or present in "KerrnelCache" When these conditions are met kexts present in "Clover/Kexts/other" will not be loaded.

What about the realtekALC.kext which your script places into "Clover/Kexts/other" by default ? Should that not now be moved to /S/L so that it can be loaded and not ignored in it's normal Clover/Kexts/other folder ?

Would appreciate your feedback.
