No sound on macbook 2017

Ok, that checks out as expected. Try the driver. Good luck.

Hi. I have 3 mac’s here and all of them works fine with sound. I have CS4206 on theese mac’s but your soundcard should also work out of the box. I never did anything to make it work. Been running Arch for years but I am back on tumbleweed now to try it out :slight_smile: I never had an issue with sound on theese mac’s regardless if I ran cli mode og full plasma desktop. That said there might be a wrong order of your digital and analog device so you can try this :

Create a file in /etc/modprobe.d/50-sound.conf and put this in it. If you already have the file there then edit and add this.

alias snd-card-1 snd-hda-intel
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel

options snd-hda-intel id=PCH index=0
options snd-hda-intel id=HDMI index=1

restart sound system and try it out.

systemctl restart alsasound

If it does not work then delete the file or remove what you added.

Another option is to create /etc/asound.conf and add this in this file

defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.ctl.card 1

Do this in terminal

cat /proc/asound/cards

to find the id of your cards

The number of your PCH should be 0 not 1

This is mine on a imac(same ****)

cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [PCH ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH
HDA Intel PCH at 0x92720000 irq 63
1 [HDMI ]: HDA-Intel - HDA ATI HDMI
HDA ATI HDMI at 0x92660000 irq 64

Hope it works out.

I did all this with no succes :frowning:

The result is exactly the same with or without the file in modprobe.

cat /proc/asound/cards

0 [PCH ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH
HDA Intel PCH at 0x92820000 irq 38

a friend of mine have the same problem with debian on a macbook pro of same date, when I already installed on an other macbook pro with full success (without any special configuration) :frowning:

odd :-(.

If this can be of any use, This machine is dualboot and the mac os ventura side work perfectly. May I check anything on mac side? (I’m not at all fluent with mac :-()

I also tested some live dvd without better success :frowning:

thanks

hdmi works also on tumbleweed…
