AUDIO NOT WORKING - [SOLVED]

AUDIO NOT WORKING - [SOLVED]

(Please read this post even if you don't have my same PC, this solution might work in total different configurations).

English is not my mother language, i'm sorry if there will be some errors. Thanks!

SOUND PREFERENCES

MY PC SPECIFICATION:

  • MODEL - OPTIPLEX 3050 MICRO
  • OS - macOS Big Sur 11.4 (I think that this problem might occur on other versions too)
  • BOOTLOADER - OPENCORE 0.7.1
  • AUDIO CONTROLLER - Codec Audio Realtek ALC3234

WORKING:

  • AUDIO TROUGH INTERNAL SPEAKER
  • HEADPHONES

- MIC (Not tested but detected in audio settings)

MORE INFO IN MY GUIDE, THERE IS MY EFI FOLDER AND SOME OTHER INFORMATION

PROBLEM:

I did a successful installation of macOS Big Sur 11.4 and during a check i noticed that the audio didn't work. I tried to do the steps suggested by Dortania Post Installation Guide and other solution that i found on internet but nothing solved the problem.

SOLUTION:

After some internet surfing i found a solution in this post. I noticed that my audio section was set like this: "PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1B,0x0)", and by changing it in "PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1F,0x3)" i finally solved my problem.

I also set layout_id = 11 - (This value depends on the audio controller, please take a look to the Dortania guide that i mentioned before).

OPENCORE - DEVICE PROPERTIES

That's all! I hope i help somebody even if this is a simple solution. If you have some questions or something else to ask i'm here to answer. Thanks!
