Can someone explain to me like I'm a small child -- how to get the audio working?

[Sneedledout]

I have seen a few dozen posts about this topic and all the threads seem to just simply link back to one or two specific guides... which don't help me. I have tried all sorts of downloads on those guides and some of them say "completed" in a terminal window when I open them, and some say "No clover/chameleon files". Those couple of guides are not helping me. Apparently I had to download clover configurator somewhere off the internet according to a youtube video? So I did that and tried to mount an EFI partition (according to the video), yet there are 4 different disks for me to mount. I clicked on the hard drive where my OS X is installed and tried those downloads again but still "no clover/chameleon files". Im way out in left field now. I don't even know if I'm walking towards the ball. I have no idea what a kext is. I picked "Realtek alc1150" sound during the MultiBeast installation. I swear to God though, if I see another person simply link to that damn "guide" again.... Thanks people.

did you installed os x in uefi or legacy mode?

search your motherboard online and look for the audio and install that audio?

I installed in UEFI mode. I have the motherboard instruction manual that clearly says my audio is ALC1150, and that's what I chose. BTW, I'm not sure if this is relevant, but even after choosing "Mac Pro" in multiibeast settings my mac shows that its an iMac. It appears that multibeast may be doing nothing as far as downloading drivers and the 'ID' of the computer.

as far as the system definition is concerned, according to your built i7-4790k you should choose imac 14.2..then see if something changes..open multibeast and change system definition

I'm a newb so I'm not sure what's wrong did you install the alc1150 Realtek driver?

I just tried selecting iMac 14-2, "installed successfully", and my sound preferences still say "no audio devices". I'm not convinced that multibeast is actually doing anything.

 

[pupuff93]

did you choose optional 3 port(5.1 Audio) in the audio page?

 

[CommanderKali]

this happened to me... alc887 audio help

Even if there is no listing for OS X?

use multibeast and install the audio kext. if you don't have realtek audio I don't know how to help
if using el capitan use multibeast 8 if sierra use multibeast 9
