On my optiplex 780

After testing every voodooHDA version, AppleHDA, and playing with IDs...etc over the past few days of panics and whatnot, I got it.
Since I'm doing this DSDT free I primarily tried with Voodoo.

I used voodooHDA 2.7.4, added PrimaryMatch with my deviceID, selected HDMI 2(of 4), set audio midi to 48,000, and that's it.

I used the same method on 2.7.3 and all I could get was static, then a panic.

Hope this helps someone.
 
Blasphemytjt,

Glad you have working HDMI audio. I am running into a wall with DSDT and AppleHDA edits for my GT 210.

I used voodooHDA 2.7.4, added PrimaryMatch with my deviceID, selected HDMI 2(of 4), set audio midi to 48,000, and that's it.

Can you tell me what "Primary Match" is?

in the voodooHDA.kext there is a info.plist (.../System/Library/Extensions/). I use text wrangler but you can use xcode if you have it, there is a line that says:

Code:
<key>IOPCIClassMatch</key>
<string>0x04030000&amp;0xffff0000</string>

Some will tell you to change it to:

Code:
<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>your id here</string>

But I like to just add 2 new lines under it so I have:
Code:
<key>IOPCIClassMatch</key>
<string>0x04030000&amp;0xffff0000</string>
<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>your id here</string>

your device ID is found in About this mac>More info>System report>Graphics/display...
Here you will see something similar, but here is my info:
Vendor: Nvidia (0x10de)
Device ID: 0x0ca3

So my device ID is 0x0ca310de (you drop the 0x from the vendor #)
 
CAn you upload your AppleHDA.kext I deleted mine and need a default one

I do not have mine as I am using voodoo, pretty sure you can just use multibeast and get the appleHDA rollback
 
Can you adjust sound settings because when I go to System Preferences, Sound and Output it says the selected device has no output controls?
 
I just got sound working through my HDMI gt240 using voodooHDA 2.7.4.The only issue is I can't adjust audio volume using the MAC or keyboard. I have to use my TV Remote. It says in Sounds, Output that the selected output has no controls.

What does it say for you?
 
same have you tried

Code:
<key>VoodooHDAEnableVolumeChangeFix</key>
<true/>

mine says the same thing
 
Does that work for you?
Where would I put it? Ive tried editing the plist but it just says something like VoodooHDA kext cant be used.
