NetbookInstaller 0.8.3 RC 3 fixes this issue. Upgrade today...(also fixes a lot of things with the trackpad)

Here are two methods that I found to work to get sound working after sleep on my Dell Mini 10v
Updated 9/19/09

Method 1:
Install sleepwatcher....here
Make sure you install both files of sleepwatcher. One is the main file and the other is a startup loader to ensure you have it every time you boot.

Go to your terminal and type

Code:

sudo nano /etc/rc.sleep

remove the contents of the file ctrl+k will delete line by line...just hold it down
copy and paste this

Code:

#!/bin/sh
/sbin/kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext/

Ctrl+x to quit.
Push Y to save

Now edit this file. In terminal type:

Code:

sudo nano /etc/rc.wakeup

remove the contents of the file ctrl+k will delete line by line...just hold it down
copy and paste this

Code:

!/bin/sh
#
osascript <<EOF
tell application "System Preferences"
        set the current pane to pane id "com.apple.preference.sound"
end tell

if application "System Preferences" is running then
        tell application "System Preferences" to quit
end if
EOF

/sbin/kextload /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext/

Ctrl+x to quit.
Push Y to save

You are done.
It takes about 15 seconds for audio to come back after sleep.
Everything works including the audio volume buttons and mic.

This is a new workaround I discovered. It basically opens up the volume prefpane which notices that there is no audio device and then the script reloads it. This two step process seems to get everything working. The only side effect is if you have the system preferences open when you go to sleep this script will close it. (Not a big deal at all)

Method 2: (I dont recomend Voodoo anymore)

Download VoodooHDA audio kext Here
Install VoodooHDA as well as the other files for it (settings panel, etc)
Rename AppleHDA.kext to AppleHDA.kext.bak in /System/Library/Extensions
Reboot
Enjoy sound after sleeping...

what about if you already install the workaround in reymedia guide? Step 7. can you still use your method or would you need to undo the workaround?

and also does the keyboard vol up/down/mute work with your method?

Method 2 that I included is basically a simplified version of reymedia's guide. You would have to uninstall the utility or delete the script if you wanted to use the Voodoo kext.

With Voodoo the buttons do work to adjust audio before and after sleeping. Good luck!

im new to the voodoo thing. so someone explain how to install it and use it. i downloaded the 2 files. one file i run and it loaded up terminal and the other program i ran it put voodoo in the setting pane. i get an error everytime i go into settings. someone help

forlack · 09-11-2009, 06:56 AM

Well, I might have spoken too soon. VoodooHDA does work after sleeping, but it seems to be distorted

But here is the weird part. I removed VoodooHDA and renamed AppleHDA back to what it was. Rebooted and now audio is working without distortion after I sleep! I dont know how loading the Voodoo kext and then removing it would somehow get AppleHDA to work with sleeping...anyone???

Voda if you are feeling a little aventerous you can see if what I did (by accident) enabled sound for you after sleep. Basically what you do is download Kext Helper. Run that program and drag VoodooHDA.kext into it. (this will install it) run this command in the terminal to disable AppleHDA.kext

sudo mv /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext/ /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext.bak/

Reboot. You should have audio now after sleep, but it might be distorted...verify this?

Do the reverse...

sudo mv /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext.bak/ /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext/

sudo open /System/Library/Extensions/
find VoodooHDA.kext and move it to trash

It might freeze when you remove voodoo without unloading it, but just restart after this...and see if your audio works after sleep.

Did you do my above post? If you are just using VoodooHDA see if the audio is distorted after sleeping? With my weird workaround I have audio and mic after sleep...I am going to do a quick repair of permission and reboot to see if I still have it...Im sorry voda if this is turning out to be some crazy goose chase, but.... ya lol
