Default Mini 10v audio static when resuming from sleep. - 06-23-2009, 05:09 PM

I am using the new VoodooHDA Rev 5 drivers for my audio and they work great (headphones/internal speakers). The only issue i have is when i resume the computer from sleep the audio becomes distorted like it is over driven.

Anyone else have this issue?

I can't comfirm this because I'm hoping to get my 10v next week, but try this. Basically it reloads the audio drivers after sleep, so they should work.

Thanks, I tried that one but it doesn't seem to load the kext. I get no sound after using those commands in the rc.wakeup script.

Hmmm this is interesting.

This workaround works for me. Try sleeping for a longer duration (sleep 3 instead of sleep 1 for example) and to add a few kextload lines at the end of the file. If it's already loaded, it will not load it more than once and adding more lines will make sure the kext is loaded correctly.

I used the link below and this worked for me.

weird that the other didn't, perhaps i put it in the wrong spot in the rc.wakeup file?

I am having this problem as well but neither of the suggestions above work for me. I always end up with no sound when it comes out of sleep.

If I manually unload and then load the kext it says it is successful but if I view the console log there is an error saying 'couldn't open pci device just after the VoodooHDA probe.

Interestingly, without either of the two fixes, I get the static after resuming from sleep but it clears up temporarily if you do anything i.e. move the mouse about or give the processor something to do like display a visualisation in iTunes.

FIXED!!!!

I didn't realise I had to delete the AppleHDA.kext from the Extensions folder, d'oh!!!
The Volume icon disappears after wake up but, to be honest, how often is that actually used anyway??? I think I'll leave it turned off :-)

Awesome! glad you got it working.

yeah, i'm with you on the speaker icon on the menu bar. Its nice to have but honestly with the volume function keys i never touch it. I was using the command to make it reappear using the script but sometimes it would cause the menu bar to get mixed up so i decided its no big deal to not have it.

Now all we need is the internal mic to work and we're golden!!
