For those who are affected by AppleHDA issues with onboard sound, left behind with broken sound or just tired of issues with it: There may be an inexpensive solution - $29 Behringer UCA202 Audio Interface, available at amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/r.html?R=1MVCV5NVRRIUL&C=3T5MUR8F9569O&H=W4EXKDAIAUUHQRMUA89NXBCKSEMA&T=C&U=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fdp%2FB000KW2YEI%2Fref%3Dpe_385040_30332200_pe_309540_26725410_item
It also provides high quality RCA input and headphones amp/monitor. It even has optical digital output. No more issue with audio pops and Mac OS X updates. It is true plug-n-play and it works with all modern OS without any drivers.

At the moment, I restored 10.9.1 from a backup and everything works perfectly fine. 10.9.2 seems like "half baked cookie" to me. Audio is not the only issue with 10.9.2...
With 10.9.2 + 10.9.1 AppleHDA (MB 6.1.0) audio would work, but only for 3-4 sleep/wake cycles, then sound would stop, just like with 10.9.2 AppleHDA version (no audio after first sleep/wake).
