Simple easy d/l and install.

Got rid of the annoying popping and static from a 3.5mm cable being connected to the speaker jack on an MBP (C2D, early 2007).

Previously I was either pulling the plug, or changing the volume every few minutes. Problem only occurred when audio was idle.

What a shame it still doesn't make the Mac Pro remember where the sound output is directed through.

What do you mean by this? I have a Mac Pro and I"m not sure I have this issue.

If you have external speakers plugged into the line output at the back ,when you restart or start-up, the chimes come from the internal speakers.

Yes, that's correct, the chime does come through the internal speakers at startup and not external speakers. That is not a bug, it is a feature. My G4 PowerBook did not have this feature, it would play the chime via the external speakers.

I should clarify that I am using a Macbook Pro now, not my old G4 PowerBook, and the chime sound comes through the internal speakers on my MacBook Pro. I like this feature because on my G4 PowerBook the chime would blow me away coming through my external speakers (I'd always forget to turn the volume down before restarting).

Yeah, this is definitely a new thing with the Intel macs. It must be the way the Intel audio controller handles sound.

It's probably related to the fact that all the sound outputs seem to be completely unrelated to each other. For instance, if you have a device plugged in to your line-out, you can still have audio come through headphones or internal speaker. On my old G5 this was not possible.

I guess the only workaround is to lug your speakers into the headphone socket - but that looks very untidy - leads coming from the front

This won't accomplish anything except mute the standard system sounds from the built-in speaker. The startup chime *always* comes through the built-in speaker no matter what. Unless you mute your audio before restarting.
