HD4600 HDMI audio, with or without dsdt edits
Haswell/8 Series/Socket 1150 - HD4600/AMD/Nvidia HDMI Audio

Update v2.2: 2/25/14 - 10.9.2/Mavericks HD4600/HD4000/HD3000 Framebuffer Edit Scripts
Update v2.1: 10/23/13 - Mavericks/10.9 and HD7xxx supported
Update v2.0: 10/14/13 - HDMIx2 and DVI2HDMI audio working
Note: v1 Archive: Haswell HDMI Audio (v1 Archive)

OS X HDMI audio for Haswell/HD4600 systems with either: 1. HDMI audio edited dsdt or 2. the Haswell HDMI audio ssdt. Both techniques enable native Haswell graphics power management. Haswell HDMI audio is not native; AppleHDA.kext and AppleIntelFramebufferAzul.kext require edits (Note 1 and 2, below) Credit, PikeRAlpha for both fixes.

Troubleshooting

  1. Verify HDMI device connected
    1. System Information/Graphics/Display/HDMI device name/Television/Yes
  2. Run IOJones/Verify Devices (PEGP, IGPU and HDAU)
    1. Device (IGPU and HDAU) may not be present if HD4600/HD5000 Graphics is not enabled
    2. Device (PEGP) may not be present if no discrete graphics
    3. If GFX0@2 exits, edited dsdt or ssdt not installed or installed improperly
  3. IOreg/IOJones/Verify HDAU@3
    1. IOHDACodecDevice@3/IOHDACodecVendorID: …80862807
    2. If no codec, apply Notes, 1. AppleHDA.kext edit
  4. IOreg/IOJones/Verify IGPU@2
    1. AppleIntelFramebuffer@2/connector-type=<00 08 00 00>
    2. if wrong connector, apply Notes, 2. AppleIntelFramebufferAzul.kext edit

Problem Reporting (post to this thread)

  1. Motherboard/BIOS version/processor/graphics/OS and version
  2. dsdt (if edited)
