Hi all,
I'm rather stuck on this issue. I have a:
Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 14, model 21V7CTO1WW
Intel(R) Core(TM) Ultra 7 356H
which mostly works well on Trixie + backports kernel and firmware, but I
don't have working speaker, mic, or HDMI (or USB-C/DP) audio. What does
work is the headphone jack (output only) and Bluetooth audio.
The GNOME control center shows no input devices and only "Speakers -
Panther Lake Smart Sound Technology BUS" as an output, but it makes no
sound.
These are some relevant packages:
firmware-cirrus 20260810-1~bpo13+1
firmware-intel-graphics 20260810-1~bpo13+1
firmware-intel-misc 20260810-1~bpo13+1
firmware-intel-sound 20260810-1~bpo13+1
firmware-iwlwifi 20260810-1~bpo13+1
firmware-realtek 20260810-1~bpo13+1
linux-image-7.2.6+deb13-amd64 7.2.6-1~bpo13+1
Now, my understanding is that these newer Lenovo laptops need some
special topology files. I can see some of that happening in the dmesg,
but I'm not sure what it all means. I've pasted the sof-related dmesg
output below. "pw-cli list-object" output was a bit large, but I can
share sections if it helps, and here's some from "wpctl status":
Audio
├─ Devices:
│ 51. Panther Lake Smart Sound Technology BUS [alsa]
├─ Sinks:
│ * 59. Panther Lake Smart Sound Technology BUS Stereo [vol: 1.00]
├─ Sources:
│
The last time I tried with a bleeding edge distro, OpenSUSE Tumbleweed,
I had the same issue, so it doesn't appear to be Debian-specific.
Any suggestions?
Regards,
Sijmen Mulder
