You don't need HDAenabler or any audio injector. Just patch dsdt for audio injection. Then edit the two plist files:

AppleHDA.kext/Contents/Plugins/AppleHDAHardwareConfigDriver.kext/Contents/Info. plist
AppleHDA.kext/Contents/Plugins/AppleHDAPlatformDriver.kext/Contents/Info.plist

Check out the guide by THe KiNG I linked earlier. Should be able to do it yourself. I've made a quick edit for your codec (ALC885 address 3). Just rename them to Info.plist and copy to their respective kexts.

And yes, it's based on the original AppleHDA.kext which came with SL build 10a432 so it's 64bit compatible.

I came across your posts here on how to enable the 5.1 sound for Snow Leopard. With the Help of Will on this forum, I was able to successfully get Sound working on my ALC889a, but I don't have the option to enable 5.1 in the Audio/Midi config. My back speakers are currently not working.

I am using the VoodooHDA kext as well. What do I need to change in my info.plist that would allow me to enable the 5.1 sound. Would you be able to guide me on this. Thx
