Strange thing now, not only does my mic not work, but my headphones sometimes work, and its definitely software, as i know the hardware works.

Here is one I'm using:
rapid share.com/files/247158387/AppleAC97Audio.kext.zip

Haven't tried the mic but everything else works fine, except volume level is always at ~50% on startup. I would like to have it at 100% but never found a way to fix this.

If you wish to try this kext please let me know if it change something...
