I've been banging my head trying to get audio to output from my Mac Mini. I've already installed the driver from the wiki, with no luck. Reading other posts about the red light and others getting audio to work because they used optical digital speakers got me thinking...

Could it be that the problem in finding the driver is due to the fact that the Mini uses a combination digital/headphone jack? I'm thinking that the Intel driver, which comes with Sigmatel HD codec, does not know how to deal with this combination link.

Apple can't be the only company using Sigmatel hardware and a combination jack. Perhaps if we look for audio drivers for devices that utilize a combo jack and use Sigmatel hardware, that we might get analog audio to work...

So far audio is "working" on my MBP...
i can switch spdif on and off and i get audio out from the line jack.

I wonder if the fact that there s no detection of a jack plugged in to the line out could be the reason for getting no output on the internal speaker.

(just an idea)

----------
Is anyone SURE that a sigmatel chipset 9220/21 is used?

I have a mini duo and i have the same Problem. It used to work, then it stoped at some point. Then i reinstalled due to another reason and it worked again. Now it stoped working again. Unofrtunatly I didn't notice if there was something special i did before this debugger crap appeared again.

I tried the /nodebug option in the boot.ini with no success.
