Weird sound problem: OSX
Hey guys I’m using a Macbook Pro and I’ve got an issue with my sound. When I have nothing plugged in and I’m just using my laptop normally, my sound doesn’t work. Even when I plug in headphones, the sound doesn’t work through those either. When I got to my system preferences, internal speakers isn’t even an option for sound. It’s just Soundflower 2ch and Soundflower 16ch. What the hell is soundflower and how do I get my internal speakers working normally again?
Thanks all
Have a look in Applications>Utilities>Audio Midi Setup
Your default output could be set to something off?
Look for Built-In Output in the Default and System Output dropdowns
When I go there, the only two options i see are the two soundflower things.. i’m not sure how to get back my default internal speakers
what the heck is soundflower?
Post a screenshot of your audio/midi settings
you installed soundflower at some point on your system. try deleting it, if you don’t even know what it is..
crap how the heck do i get a photo up here?
at the bottom of this page under the message reply box, click press ‘go advanced’
in the tool bar above the message box on the new page you should see a paper clip, click it and upload the image from your computer

damnit it keeps only showing the blue error boxes! 
In Audio Midi Setup, go to the Audio Devices tab.
Then go to the top bar in osx and under ‘Audio’ go to audio device aggregate.
See if there is a built in there when it searches all connections
sorry what part are you referring to?
Try going to disk utility and repair permissions. Maybe the permissions for the AppleHDA.kext have been messed up by the soundflower installation.
Right click on the 2 channel and make it default for output. Then click on configure speakers and see if you can sound out using soundflower. You could also try and delete the soundflower app and see if the default sound options show back up.
So i don’t really need soundflower? How’d it end up on my computer?
how do i go about deleting it? I can’t find the file anywhere
soundflower is an additional program which you have to install to get it on your maschine.. there should be a folder called ‘soundflower’ inside your application folder.
