[QUOTE="the-usher, post: 1056539, member: 156612"] Alright, so I did some experimentation with moving certain extensions. I determined that the 'AppleHDA.kext' is the driver for the internal speakers. I was able to remove it from the extensions folder and reboot with no 'serious' issues. While my external interface was showing up as the only audio output option is system preferences, the system sound didn't default to it. Instead, there was no system sound at all. I have noticed that on other macs, it is possible to change the source for system sounds. On my MacBook Pro, it's a grayed out option. Does anyone know how to unlock or change this preference in terminal? [/QUOTE]
