[solved] DSDT compile error audio layout 3

[dodvip123]

I'm trying to get audio working on my laptop.

After successfully applying the brightness fix (broadwell) i tried to apply the Audio layout 3 and IRQ fix patches but it gave me this error in Maciasl:

Name already exists in scope (_DSM)

i don't know how to get rid of this. Can anybody help? I've attached my native DSDT and the DSDT with above patches with the error.

Thanks

It's pretty clear that you have a duplicate _DSM method. Simply remove it.

Can you please point out where? I can only see one DSM method in the HDEF device

The guide recommends removing all _DSM methods (or renaming them to XDSM) prior to applying functional patches.
Why did you ignore the advice?

It tried it earlier but it gave me an error so i thought i didn't need it, that error was fixed easily by adding an extra '}'. Thanks, audio works now.

You should read the guide carefully. The guide clearly says to use "Rename _DSM methods to XDSM" when "Remove _DSM methods" causes that error.
