SOLVED: El Capitan and Asus P5W DH no sound to HDMI (GT 740)
I did a vanilla install of El Capitan, and overall the system works very well. I have a 4K Samsung and have connected the Nvidia GT 740 HDMI out to the TV. Picture is great and adjustable. This board uses ALC882M High Definition, and Multibeast has no specific drivers for that item.
I can get sound in (mic) and out via a USB Plantronics headset without any need for additional drivers. It works OOB.
I've read quite a few how to solve sound for this motherboard, but all largely on Mavericks, from editing DSDT's, to Voodoo drivers, changing the Apple kexts out, installing other kexts, but not of these years old ideas appear to fit for El Capitan.
My skills/knowledge base is still very basic, and I do not want to screwup my setup and have to reinstall the OS. On the Windows side, HDMI should works perfectly.
Is there a P5W user who has the solution for El Capitan and the sound?
Thank you.
