USB Audio Issue

Hi All,

I have a NI Audio Kontrol audio interface connected to my Hackintosh.

If i boot with it connected it doesn't work & it shows up as an unknown device in Audio Midi set up.

If i then unplug and replug it it works fine. I have no problems with any other USB devices, just audio over usb.

Spent a long time search for an answer to this here and on a couple of other forums with no joy,

can anybody help?


System specs below,

MSi P35 Platinum, Kabyl Modded Bios (1.8), q6600, 4GB RAM, ideneb 1.5.8 (matched kernel & system.kext 9.8.0)

I think it would be best to find a well recommended USB Audio adpter for Hackintosh and replace the one you have, if this one has been tested and has worked flawless in others hackintoshes then you may need a new "IOUSBFamily.kext" that has been patched.

thanks for the prompt reply! please excuse my ignorance but could you point in a starting direction?

Interestingly, the audio kontrol shows up fine in the system profiler and it shows ok in the Midi side of the audio midi setup.

Well ebay for starters, don't buy outside your country, look up "OSx86 Compatible USB Audio Devices" on google, then try to find one that is recommended on ebay or wherever you like to get you computer parts from, Also try "Newegg" or www.Newegg.com .

I would recommend going here to download the driver:

I also am using an audio interface, and i just downloaded the driver from their website and deleted voodoohda, as i also get a faster boot time

@sports guy

I have the latest version of the ak driver installed.

booting with -v shows that the niusbaudio driver attempts to load but fails (Jettisoning Kernel Linker)

Im so close to getting this to work perfectly!

did you remove voodoohda? and check in the system settings to make sure you have it turned on
