No sound output after wake up in OS X Mavericks

Hi, When I wake up my 13" macbook air (mid-2013 model) after few hours of sleep I am finding that
there is no audio output, so I have to restart everytime, which is quite annoying.
I know there was a similar issue for some people (not me tho) in 10.8.5 but it got corrected from an update (If I'm not mistaken).
I am experiencing this in the latest OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
I really really hope there is a solution to this other than way for apple to release an update
Thank you!

try the thing with ther kext  as seen on page 3 of this thread i guess from 10.8.5! That REALLY  solved my issue! MBA2013

Here how i have replace the AppleHDA.kext driver on my MacBookAir 13" (2013):
sudo mv /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext.disabled sudo cp -pr AppleHDA.10.8.5.kext /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext sudo touch  /System/Library/Extensions
Then reboot
Here the link to AppleHDA driver of Mountain Lion 10.8.5:https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/112112/AppleHDA.10.8.5.kext.zip

  • Keyboard becomes insensible after wake up or power on (Mavericks)

    After wake up from sleep (or power on) my macbook pro retina (mid 2012) some keys are insensible, they restart to function properly after five or ten minutes.
    Has someone problem like mine? How can i solve it?
    Thank you.

    Hello gabrygaggio19,
    I would be concerned too some of the keys on my keyboard were not working.  I found an article that can assist with troubleshooting issues with the built in keyboard.  I recommend following the steps under the section titled, "Some keys don't work as expected" in the following article:
    One or more keys on the keyboard do not respond

    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

  • No sound output after 10.5.2 & Graphics Update

    Installed 10.5.2 and the graphics update last night. Today, come home after work. Startup the computer, and sound is playing from the internal speakers, rather than my externals which I've had for years (and worked fine yesterday). When I go to the Sound Prefs, all that shows is the built-in speakers. Have tried external speakers, headphones - doesn't see either.
    Anyone have any advice, having the same issue?

  • Diminished sound output after traveling abroad...

    My laptop was with me the whole time so I know it did not take direct damage, but once I arrived I've found that my speakers are simply much quieter than before. The sound will still increase as I use the add volume button but it doesn't get very loud, and the speakers sound like they've been blown. This is without mentioning that the first day I bought it I turned my output down a notch to prevent just that. What could be the cause of this and how do I fix it? I need to use them to practice my trumpet.

    Try a PRAM reset:

  • Output volume at maximum after wake-up from sleep

    Hi,
    I very often find my sound output volume at maximum level after my MacPro (10.6.2) wakes up from sleep. And I always have it set at about 20%. An unexpected 100% is overwhelming loud... I have no idea how to solve it. Anyone with a possible solution?
    Mr. Pen

    I use a little Preference Pane called Startup Sound which lets you set a default startup chime level. It hasn't been updated for ages, nor tested on 10.6, but it seems to work fine. You could give it a quick test to see if it helps.

  • Digital sound output only after using Headphones

    i used my MacbookPro 17 2.66
    with headphones to listen to music and after i removed headphones there is a red light in the headphone port and only digital sound output option in system preferences control panel
    If i reinsert headphones, headphone output reappears
    Where are my internal speaker option gone
    i have a time machine backup
    Can i just replace sound preferences
    Thanks

    Generally that means your headphones' plug is not exactly to dimensional stands and has jammed the internal connector in the jack to the "mute" position. The plug's tip-to-shoulder distance seems to be the variable.
    I've found with my MBP that, with non-standard plugs, inserting them only until they function--not until the "stop shoulder" hits the MBP case--prevents this. I have an old and cheap set of external speakers whose plug works perfectly. A patch cable I use to connect to my desktop sound system has a non-standard plug, and I have to leave the plug slightly out of the jack to prevent the problem you see. Again, insert until you hear proper sound to the device, not by feel. I've no problems with the plugs falling out using this technique.
    The "official" fix is a new logic board but most people are able to free the internal contact by inserting a plus into the jack and gently wiggling it in the horizontal plane. One person recently said he freed his with a wooden toothpick.
    If you use anything other than a standard plug to manipulate the jack, be certain it's non-conductive. BTW, if you use the "Search Discussion" option in the upper right of this page and search for "red light" (use the quotes) you will see a number of threads here on the subject.

  • Why do my sound output settings keep resetting after restart?

    Just bought a MBPro with OS 10.6.4.
    After restarting my sound output settings keep resetting to Soundflower (2ch) from Internal speakers.
    It doesn't take too much to change it, but it is pretty annoying and I'm assuming there's some obscure setting that can fix this.
    Anyone able to help?

    This fixed it on my Mac Pro. It might work on a MacBook Pro.
    Delete these three files:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.soundpref.plist
    /Library/Preferences/Audio/com.apple.audio.DeviceSettings.plist
    /Library/Preferences/Audio/com.apple.audio.SystemSettings.plist
    Reselect whatever sound device you want as your default in the Sound Preference Pane.
    Restart the computer.

  • After upgrading to iOS 5.1, the sound output works abnormally.

    After upgrading to iOS 5.1, the sound output (the 3.5mm output) works correctly only when Apple provided headphones or certain headphones are plugged in. Others cause the iPod to produce sort of phased out sound with lots of digital, low-quality sounding artifacts. Other headphones have no problems since they work fine when plugged into my MacBook.
    Anyone having similar problems? Solutions?

    Could be due to a defective headhone jack in the iPod that just coinsided with the iOS update.
    However, to rule out a software cause, try the following.
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • No sound via digital output after reinstallation of snow leopard

    Hi,
    I use my mac mini as Media Center using the XBMC.org for the last year.
    yesterday, I decided to reinstall the Mac Mini, and to organize everything I have there. I erase the HDD and install the 10.6.2 retail DVD and upgrade to 10.6.4
    After everything done successfully, I realize that there is no sound via the Digital I/O which works great before that process. I tried this issue with several software and even in the prefs, the only audio device is the 'Internal Speakers'
    Any idea?
    Thanks,
    Tomer

    For DVD Output you need to set DVD Player to stream to digital audio, look here:
    DVD Player -> Preferences -> Disk Setup | Audio - Audio Output
    I assume you have selected "Digital Out" in:
    System Preferences -> Sound - Output
    for system sounds ?

  • System Sound Output Level Reset After Reboot ?

    Whenever my iMac Core Duo is rebooted, system sound output level always get reset to value 0.56 (-24dB) as shown in utility "/Applications/Utilities/Audio Midi Setup". I have to increase the system sound output level to desired value of 0.75(-12.75dB) to match with built-in amplifier of Altec Lansing FX6021 speaker system. The desired setting lasts until next reboot. Is there any way I can fix the system sound output level at desired level between reboots ? Why I have to be involved in such constant struggle with the iMac for such simple audio configuration ?
    Audio Hijack Pro 2.6.7 wihtout Soundflower 1.1 virtual audio device has been installed. Audio hijack function of this utility has not been used at all. Thank you for any pointer.

    Thanks for the confirmation that my iMac is not an isolated case. In case you are not willing to use Audio Hijack Pro, just use Automator to create an Automator script to set system volume (In Automator's Library plane: Applications>System>Set System Volume) and save it as application. Set this application as Login Items for your account through following menu path:
    System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items. Whenever you login with this account, the script will be invoked automatically by Mac OS X and sound levels for output, input and alert will be set to user preferred levels. For older versions of Mac OS X (10.3.9 and earlier) without Automator, same effect can be achieved with Apple Script, use Apple Script Editor instead of Automator to create Apple Script and set it as Login Items. This workaround has been working consistently on my iMac Intel Core Duo.

  • After updating to 12.1.2.27, songs play, but without any sound output to internal iMac speakers

    So i updated to 12.1.2.27 and songs 'play', but without any sound output. Checked my audio settings and had it at Internal speakers. Checked the speakers (they work, at least for YouTube vids), restarted machine, etc and no audio output from iTunes. Any suggestions? Am I missing something?
    Thanks in advance

    Try unchecking Sound Enhancer and Sound Check in your Preferences under Playback
    Sound check may have reduced everything to a low output level inadvertently.

  • Problem with sound, maybe after upgrade.

    Hello guys,
    Yesterday I did a system upgrade and after I rebooted there seems to be a problem with my sound. There is now a popping sound during startup from both speakers, and again a crackling sound when it wakes from sleep. If I connect my headphones there is no sound output through it. The output is through speakers. My system is an Asus X201E. This is a part of pacman.log after which the problem started:

    Any idea as to what happened? Also, I am using alsa. Thanks.
    Edit: There is also a crackling sound when I connect or disconnect my headphone.

    Hello dabholkaras,
    Today I did a system upgrade and after I met a similer sound problem.
    I resolved this problem by downgrade packages as follows;
    upgrade /var/log/pacman.log:

  • CPU load / sound output

    today i noticed that the cpu load goes up to 15% from 2% (in itunes) when i switch the sound output from line out to the integrated speakers! can anyone confirm this? this seems to be a systemwide issue because it happens with QT and VLC (mp3 playback only) too!

    I've tried it, nothing. Everything stays @2-3% while switching back and forth. So it doesn't seem like it makes a difference. I have noticed though, the CPU sitting around 40% for a few minutes without having applications open, especially after I wake the computer from sleep.
    Also, I'm assuming you're using OS X, and this is where I tried this.

  • MacBook Pro restarts precisely 5 minutes after wake up, due to sleep wake failure

    I have a mid-2009 MacBook Pro running OS 10.9.3. When I am running on battery power, it restarts precisely 5 minutes after I open the lid and wake it up. I have no problems when connected to a power supply.
    A (condensed) excerpt from the Console logs looks like this:
    03/06/2014 01:16:02.000 kernel[0]: Wake reason: EHC1 OHC2
    03/06/2014 21:59:21.000 kernel[0]: AirPort_Brcm43xx::powerChange: System Wake - Full Wake/ Dark Wake / Maintenance wake

    03/06/2014 22:04:21.000 kernel[0]: Restarting to collect Sleep wake debug logs
    03/06/2014 22:04:58.000 bootlog[0]: BOOT_TIME 1401829498 0
    See how the wake time and the restart time (in red) are exactly 5 minutes apart?
    I have tried resetting NVRAM/PRAM, and the SMC reset, to no avail. DiskUtil finds no errors. The only variable I can control which affects the problem is whether the power cable is plugged in or not.
    I would like to better understand the items in blue: the code for the wake reason (EHC1 OHC2), the enumeration of possible sleep causes (Previous Sleep Cause: 5) or the "I'm now going to screw up your work" notification (Restarting to collect Sleep wake debug logs).
    Finally, there are errors relating to the USB controller. I would be interested in knowing if these are related, but I don't really know how to test for that.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
