Audio used to work until it changed to AZAL

[DarkSilentSC]

I had previously working audio with AppleALC layoutid=7 (well sort of, since I had to use one of the surround port to get audio)
But after purchasing Fenvi T-919, I had to reconnect my external audio card from one PCIe Slot from one slot to another.

After this is done, I made sure I go back and forth between gfxutil and/or Hackintool PCIe table list and update my OC DeviceProperties so that external-audio=1 and alctcsel=1 is assigned to the correct Pciroot directory.

However, Mac just seems to assign HDEF to my external card, and assigns AZAL to my onboard audio device, when I looked in IOReg, Even tho such device still shows up in PCIe list in Hackintool.

In Hackintool > System > Peripherals, Audio table shows only my USB connected C922 Webcam, and Navi 21 HDMI Audio [Radeon RX 6900XT]
Are there any additional edits am I supposed to do in my config.plist?

Reply below if I need to post my EFI or config.plist, and I shall. Thanks in advance!

I stand firm that the AMD device comparison is the same- pci address matches, yet for some reason, as you posted above, some data is being shown differently. Creative device being more significantly different.

But I can put this issue at a lower priority and work on USBMap…

Okay so I got USBMap wrong so corrected most of HSn to type 0, not 3...
Re-enabled unused ports so that the address and port number aligns nicely...

You will be making another mistake if you change ALL the USB2 ports to (0).

1. Only 4 x ports on your motherboard, the four black tang ports on the rear I/O plate, should be set with connector type USB2 (0). These are the four ports I highlighted on the rear I/O image in post #6.
2. Any USB2 virtual ports, i.e. not USB2 physical ports, should be set to match the physical aspect of the port it is served from.
3. So, if you have a USB3 or Type-C port/header that provides a virtual USB2 port, that virtual USB2 port should be set with the same connector type as the Physical connector, i.e. USB3 (3) or Type-C+Switch (9) or Type-C without switch (10).
4. Under no circumstances should you set the connector type for a virtual USB2 port as USB2 (0).
5. Only the USB header F_USB1 and USB port from the M.2_WiFi connector should be set with a connector type 'Internal' (255), a maximum of 3 x (255) ports if all are used.
6. The 2 x USB3 headers, which can provide up to 8 x ports (4 x USB3 & 4 x USB2 (virtual)), should all be set as USB3 (3).

1. First of all, that 4x USB2 ports on the Backplate:

Those are showing as single USB2.0 Hub. Corpnewt tool indicates that any 2.0 device I plug in it shows it under this Hub. I remember there was a past thread discussion similar to this case and was instructed to set it as type number 0.

2. I'm understanding that any "physical" USB 3 ports that supports reading USB2.0 devices, are called USB2 virtual ports, and they need to be type 3. So those ports, I'll revert applicable HS to type 3.

3. USB-C are remain set as type 9 for both applicable HS and SS

5. M.2 WiFi or bluetooth? (Intel Bluetooth USB address) That is set to 255

Attaching IOReg and USBMap kext

Sorry-- updated USBMap.kext with assigning 255 as you suggested. There were total 3.

 

[Edhawk]

Having reviewed the information you provided and making some educated guesses, I think your USBMap.kext should contain the following.

Motherboard headers and built-in USB ports - XHC0 controller

Rear I/O plate ports XHC2 & XHC3 controllers

A revised USBMap.kext is attached for you to test. Port mapping amended to match port connector types listed in images above.

Tried your USBMap and still causing issues. Must be something else outside USB Mapping. I'll try with Ventura and see what happens.
