Description

Bootloader: OpenCore Model: TM1701 (KBL) macOS 12.0

localhost kernel[0]: Kext org.tw.CodecCommander - library kext com.apple.iokit.IOAudioFamily not found.
localhost kernel[0]: Can't load kext org.tw.CodecCommander - failed to resolve library dependencies.
localhost kernel[0]: Kext org.tw.CodecCommander failed to load (0xdc00800e).
localhost kernel[0]: Failed to load kext org.tw.CodecCommander (error 0xdc00800e).
localhost kernel[0]: Couldn't alloc class "CodecCommanderResidency"

It is a clueless issue because there's no way com.apple.iokit.IOAudioFamily is not loaded. This issue happens occasionally, and I don't have great solution for this. Maybe manually sudo kextload CodecCommander.kext after boot? That perhaps works, but not convenient for users.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate why IOAudioFamily is not resolved during kext loading. Check OpenCore kext injection order, ensure AppleALC or other audio kexts are loaded before CodecCommander. Consider using kextstat to verify loaded kexts at the time of failure. Look into whether macOS 12.0 has changed dependencies for IOAudioFamily.
