Dell 9020 - Audio Line in - not working and Bluetooth dongle connected - Refusing to turn ON

[apsathyan]

Thanks for this wonderful work. I have installed Monterey on my Dell 9020 without any issue. Everything works except Audio Line in for Siri stuff and USB Bluetooth dongle shows with a cross and refuses to turn ON. I was using this Bluetooth dongle till Big Sur. Is there any fix to rectify the above said issues. If you can send any link I can follow and I will be happy to learn and do it. Thanks again for this effort you have taken. Cheers.

The bluetooth issues are on Apple's part. Most 3rd party bluetooth devices are broken in Monterey and some even in Big Sur latest updates. Try adding this kext. It might help, or not. We have to wait for the final Monterey before a proper fix will come form the community. But it is a known issue.

As for the line-in, you'd have to try different layout-id's listed in the guide and see which ones make it work for you. Some of them require you to manually select the in and outputs.

@apsathyan Not sure if this helps you, but for bluetooth I can confirm that the Fenvi HB1200 (internal card, not a dongle) works flawlessly on this build (e.g., handoff/continuity, Apple Watch unlock, etc.) on Monterey (on Beta 10) and Catalina.

You might have edit a plist file inside whichever bluetooth kext your stick was using when it worked and add the device/vendor id if its missing.

These are post install things I can't really start supporting or I might get lots of people opening tickets. Some stuff must be sorted by the end user. I just provide a working EFI for how the machine in unmodified state.

I hope Apple will fix it in the final release and if not, surely the community will come up with something. Many people's dongles stopped working.

Also make sure that you set the USB port you connect the dongle to as internal. Edit the plist inside USBPorts.kext and set the port it's connected to 255. This will also prevent any sleep issues caused by the bluetooth stick.

Good luck and feel free to update this issue if you have any updates!
