Description Davide Baldo 2021-08-03 11:43:18 UTC
Speakers are not working by default while headphones works out of the box.

A workaround is discussed in arch linux, 
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/HP_Spectre_x360_(2020)#Audio

And on stackoverflow:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1263178/20-04-no-speaker-audio-on-hp-spectre-x360-2020-15t-eb000

My hardware is slightly a different version but the workaround works:

Comment 1 Davide Baldo 2021-08-13 15:24:17 UTC
By applying this small patch front speakers start by default, the workaround only turn on the rear speakers

but in the quirk the comments is stating it should turn on the REAR ones (but turns on the front ones for me). I don't know if it's a typo or the models are actually different.

Comment 2 Davide Baldo 2021-09-09 09:42:24 UTC
I'm working at a bugfix myself, will submit a patch which fixes both speakers in the following weeks
Comment 3 Philippe Rouquier 2021-09-25 14:41:21 UTC
Hi, for what it's worth I tried the patch, though for a slightly newer machine (HP Spectre x360 15-eb1xxx but 0x8812) and I can confirm it works in fedora 35 (currently using 5.14.7). It would be great if it were modified to include my model as well and integrated in the kernel mainline.
Comment 4 Davide Baldo 2021-09-25 19:53:39 UTC
I've just sent out the patch to alsa-devel mailing list, should be visible as soon as my email is approved, in the meantime this is my commit which enabled both front and rear speakers.

In laptop 'HP Spectre x360 Convertible 15-eb1xxx/8811' both front and
rear speakers are silent, this patch fixes that by overriding the pin
layout and by initializing the amplifier which needs a GPIO pin to be
set to 1 then 0, similar to the existing HP Spectre x360 14 model.

This patch also correctly map the mute LED but since there is no
microphone on/off switch exposed by the alsa subsystem it never turns
on by itself.

There are still known audio issues in this laptop: headset microphone
doesn't work, the button to mute/unmute microphone is not yet mapped,
the LED of the mute/unmute speakers doesn't seems to be exposed via
GPIO and never turns on.

Comment 5 Davide Baldo 2021-09-25 19:55:45 UTC
Simply replace the identifier from 0x8811 to 0x8812, if it works i'll add it to the pull request.
Comment 6 Philippe Rouquier 2021-09-27 07:30:24 UTC
I tried your patch with my model. It kind of works, thanks for your work. I have the front speakers working as well as the back speakers. BUT, the sound volume is always maxed out whatever I do. I can't change it in GNOME or in alsamixer. I can move the sliders up and down from 1 to 100 but the sound volume remains the same.

One point I wanted to mention is that gnome offers the possibility in the control panel to change the sound volume on an application basis. Even though, as I said, the slider for master does not change anything, I can change the volume for each application and it works.

One other thing I noticed with the previous/original patch is that I only had the back speakers working but if I used (while playing sound) the workaround that can be found on internet:
sudo hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_DATA 0x00
sudo hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_DIR 0x01
sudo hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_MASK 0x01
sudo hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_DATA 0x01
sudo hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_DATA 0x00

the front speakers started working and I had no problem controlling sound.


As for the led, it does not turn on or off but maybe it was to be expected given your comment.

If I can be of any help to improve the patch for my machine, let me know.
Comment 7 Davide Baldo 2021-09-27 10:27:20 UTC
I didn't notice but I had the very same issue, i played around a bit with pre-amp connections, seems like both front and back speakers are connected to the same pre-amp, this patch makes it explicit to alsa and allows to play with volume, let me know if you notice anything broken (stereo/mono headset/headphone etc..).

Comment 8 Philippe Rouquier 2021-09-27 14:00:27 UTC
I tried and it works as it should. Master control works as expected and so does gnome control slider.
One small problem though remains but I don't think it is related to your patch because I had noticed it previously when I used the hda-verb workaround mentioned earlier in my previous comment. After suspend the sound stutters a bit and I need to reboot. But if I cold boot, your patch works like a charm. Well done and thank you.
Comment 9 Alexander Giese 2021-10-15 17:09:03 UTC
The hda-verb-quirk mentioned above was actually supplied by me. On my machine it does indeed turn on the rear speakers. No typo there ;)
It seems like the front and back speakers are switched between the eb0xxx and eb1xxx devices. As for what I know it does not make a difference in the fix you supplied.
I use this device:

DMI: HP HP Spectre x360 Convertible 15-eb0xxx/86E8, BIOS F.12 07/30/2021

I tried your patch on my machine and everything works exactly as you described it. They appear to be very similar. If you are still working on this would you mind including my device as well?

What I did for now:

alsa-info for HP Spectre x360 Convertible 14-ea1xxx

I have the same issue on an HP Spectre x360 Convertible 14-ea1xxx.  Attached is my alsa-info.  I am currently running kernel 5.19.7 on Arch-Linux.

Same issue as with comment 10, HP Spectre 14-ea100

Running Fedora 36 with Kernel 6.0.5-200.

Speakers are recognized on boot as Tiger Lake-LP Smart Sound Technology Audio Controller, but no sound comes from the speakers.  

Interesting, I run a dual boot with Windows 11, and an initial boot to Windows followed by a restart fixes the issue and sound works fine!

Please let me know what data would be necessary to help resolve the issue; thank you!
