Description jayminpatelv 2020-03-29 21:26:05 UTC
Hello,

I'm on Lenovo S740 with Coffee Lake. Speaker sound used to work with older kernel but in one of the recent kernels it broke. Now, despite using the new modification, (snd_intel_dspcfg: dsp_driver=1), speaker do not work. Audiojack appears to work as expected. I have spent days looking into this but am unable to resolve.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

FYI, without, snd_intel_dspcfg: dsp_driver=1, no driver is detected and I only get dummy output option. 

Sound works well in windows. I have made sure fast boot is turned off and have tried it with many hard shutdowns.

I also own Lenovo S740 and I have exactly same problem. Running 5.8rc6 now.

In my setup, the SOF driver is used. I've filed a bug on SOF tracker bugtracker: https://github.com/thesofproject/sof/issues/3209.

If things used to work on this device, maybe the best advice would be to try with an older kernel and try to narrow down when the problem occurred.
I would try with 4.19, then 5.4, then bisect as needed.

I went back as far back as to 4.14, but still had no sound. Tried 4.4, but it wouldn't boot on my machine.
