Have a look at your SMBIOS settings in config.plist. Right now it has entries for two chips (normally slots 0 and 2). You'd want to duplicate those entries so it has four chips listed, presumably in slots 0, 1, 2, and 3.

The other option would be to just remove all the memory settings from config.plist and let it auto-detect, though often the auto-detection doesn't work for DDR4.

i backed up my config.plist so that i can change what ever i want and after many tries this is the best i could get

OK. Start your research with the USB section of the http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capitan-desktop-guides/179221-skylake-starter-guide.html :)

i tried the first part of fixing the USB ports and downloaded the tools to continue on to the 2nd part, but when i started reading i could not understand most of it so i decided not to go through with it.
USB 2 working
USB 3 working
USB 3.1 not working (can live with out)
USB C could not test

however now i cant use my apple keyboard, when i plug it in it gives me this message

SUCCESS

I downloaded
- MaciASL
- SSDT-USB-Maximus-VIII-Hero.aml
- SSDT-USB-Maximus-VIII-Hero.dsl
from http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capitan-desktop-guides/179221-skylake-starter-guide.html

renamed SSDT-USB-Maximus-VIII-Hero.aml to SSDT-USB.aml and copied it to EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/patched/
and since my mobo has 20 usb ports i had to disable 5 i opened SSDT-USB-Maximus-VIII-Hero.dsl in MaciASL looked for ports with high numbers in the motherboard headers since my case has only 2 extra USB3 i marked the names of mostly USB2 ports (SS04,HS11,HS12,HS13,HS14)
opened my config.plist file and added the argument
Code: 
<key>Arguments</key>
<string>uia_exclude=HS11;HS12;HS13;HS14;SS04</string>
removed
Code: 
<string>change 15 port limit to 30 in AppleUSBXHCIPCI</string>
that i added earlier
reboot and everything is working as it should

For audio: try changing the Devices / Audio / Inject setting in config.plist from 3 to 1 and then reboot.

After the reboot, if you go into System Configuration / Sound / Output do you see any output devices there?

For the half-memory problem: how much memory does your system have? Right now config.plist says 2 slots with 8 GB each.

Hi, I am on the Gene VIII board and having a similar issue. I only have AirPlay listed. I tried changing the Audio Devices from 3 to 1 however it was already set to one. I tried changing it to 3 then back to 1 but still same thing. Any suggestion? Many Thanks!

UPDATE: After running these lines in terminal for unrelated issue with a RALINK USB WiFi dongle the problem was resolved. (Also resolved the dongle issue i now have wifi from usb dongle)

sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/

sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/

sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions/

That didn't work for me at first, but then I added "ResetHDA" in clover config under devices. All ports are being detected. I used MultiBeast ALC1150 and 100 series audio patch, ran the above command, and then when it didn't work I added "ResetHDA." Now it works :)

(Im not sure if I even needed to run those commands?)
