Hello Everyone,
Two ways to get ALC892 to work Hackintosh
Using patched AppleHDA.kext from toleda, present in Multibeast 6.0.2 for Mavericks / Yosemite / El Captian.
I use it two ways,
1) Mutilibeast-> Drivers->Audio->Realtek->No DSDT->ALC892 (install patched AppleHDA.kext and HDAEnabler1.kext)
Run, kext utility to refresh and rebuild kernel caches.
2) Install patched kext AppleHDA.kext and HDAEnabler1.kext from previous working system kept as backup, using Kext Utility 2.6.1
Both ways after reboot, sound card works perfectly.
Yet there is a issue with this, there is no option for Headphone (front green pin).
Hence I tried various versions of VoodooHDA for Mavericks and Yosemite and ended up using 2.8.5 as the best one(of course HDMI out not tested).
Now from this post
http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/s...lc892-issue-with-ga-z170m-and-10-11-4.192544/
I thought of trying 2.8.8 for El Capitan 10.11.4. The installation gives error saying this package is not compatible. The reason for this is SIP in El Capitan. Best way to disable SIP in hackintosh is using the following in org.chameleon.Boot.plist
Then the installation proceeds smoothly, still I found some issues like neither "Preferences Pane" file does not get installed nor
VoodooHDASettingLoader.app gets installed. I had to copy these files from other source (voodoo 2.8.5).
After successful installation and reboot, sound card works fine, but I found 2 minor issues.
Hence, use the package attached which is source and binaries of 2.8.5, I got from "insanemac.com".
This is not a installation package. Extract the zip file, then goto
voodoohda-code->Binaries and follow these steps
After using this my system has a clean driver for sound card, a good preferences pane and a setting loader application.
"VoodooHdaSettingsLoader" needs to be added to your login account startup items list. Please google how to do that.

<key>CsrActiveConfig</key>
<string>103</string>
or
<key>CsrActiveConfig</key>
<string>0x67</string>
For Clover, it would be placed in config.plist. Please Google for more details.<string>103</string>
or
<key>CsrActiveConfig</key>

After successful installation and reboot, sound card works fine, but I found 2 minor issues.
- At boot up and load of the voodoo kext, a huge "doob" noise comes from the card to the sound box which is very annoying.
- A "tick tick" noise in headphone
Hence, use the package attached which is source and binaries of 2.8.5, I got from "insanemac.com".
This is not a installation package. Extract the zip file, then goto
voodoohda-code->Binaries and follow these steps
- Copy "VoodooHdaSettingsLoader.app" to Applications folder.
- Copy "VoodooHDA.prefPane" to /Library/PreferencePanes/
- Remove AppleHDA.kext from /System/Library/Extensions/
- Also remove HDAEnabler1.kext if present either in /System/Library/Extensions or /Extra/Extentions
- Install voodooHDA.kext using kext utility 2.6.1 (installs the kext, rebuilds the kernel caches)
- Install AppleHDADisabler.kext using kext utility 2.6.1
