Can't get realtek audio to work instead of HDMI.

I just installed the latest FreeBSD but I'm having issues with audio. It seems that freebsd is only detecting my HDMI audio and not the stereo speakers on my intel haswell laptop. Here is some information:

from dmesg

Code:
hdacc0: <Intel Haswell HDA CODEC> at cad 0 on hdac0
hdaa0: <Intel Haswell Audio Function Group> at nid 1 on hdacc0
pcm0: <Intel Haswell (HDMI/DP 8ch)> at nid 3 on hdaa0
hdacc1: <Realtek (0x0283) HDA CODEC> at cad 0 on hdac1
hdaa1: <Realtek (0x0283) Audio Function Group> at nid 1 on hdacc1
hdaa1: hdaa_audio_as_parse: Pin 26 has wrong direction for association 1! Disabling association.
hdaa1: hdaa_audio_as_parse: Pin 33 has wrong direction for association 2! Disabling association.

I tried changing the output with
sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=n

but it would only let me select 0 and nothing else.

from /dev/sndstat

Code:
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Intel Haswell (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play) default
No devices installed from userspace.

I'm not sure what else to do. Thanks for any help.

edit: Upon further examination it seems the laptop uses Realtek ALC 283 which from searching Google may not be supported in FreeBSD?
 
Hey xenphor;

It seems I have the exact opposite problem of yours: No HDMI Audio Out for Intel Haswell (HD Graphics 4600) - https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/60835/#post-352673

I have no intention of hijacking your thread, but could you show the output of the following commands? That should help in discovering your root issue as well as help me in discovering why I can't get audio over HDMI.

pciconf -lv | grep -i audio

grep -i audio /var/run/dmesg.boot

sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=0

mixer

ls /dev/dsp*

kldstat
 
Okay here it is:

pciconf -lv | grep -i audio
Code:
    device     = 'Haswell-ULT HD Audio Controller'
    device     = '8 Series HD Audio Controller'

grep -i audio /var/run/dmesg.boot
Code:
hdaa0: <Intel Haswell Audio Function Group> at nid 1 on hdacc0
hdaa1: <Realtek (0x0283) Audio Function Group> at nid 1 on hdacc1
hdaa1: hdaa_audio_as_parse: Pin 26 has wrong direction for association 1! Disabling association.
hdaa1: hdaa_audio_as_parse: Pin 33 has wrong direction for association 2! Disabling association.

sysctl hw.snd.default_unit=0
Code:
hw.snd.default_unit: 0 -> 0
mixer
Code:
Mixer vol      is currently set to 100:100
Mixer pcm      is currently set to 100:100

ls /dev/dsp*
Code:
ls: /dev/dsp*: No such file or directory

kldstat
Code:

Your situation looks similar to mine, aside from the:

hdaa1: hdaa_audio_as_parse: Pin 26 has wrong direction for association 1! Disabling association.
hdaa1: hdaa_audio_as_parse: Pin 33 has wrong direction for association 2! Disabling association.


Are you using some sort of sound card with jumpers?

Also, were you able to confirm you even get sound over HDMI or does it simply detect it? How are you testing the sound output?
 
I'm just using the onboard audio on my acer c720 chromebook. Nothing special. Just want to get the speakers working. I confirmed that HDMI audio is working by hooking my laptop up to an external monitor via hdmi and testing a video in youtube.
 
Unfortunately most of that stuff goes over my head so I don't think I'll be able to do much more.
