SRU Justification: [ Impact ]
* This is a hardware enablement SRU. * It adds an alias to alsa-lib to handle the enw hardware correctly. [ Fix ] * Adding `hda-acpi cards.HDA-Intel` to the conf/cards/aliases list. [ Test Plan ] * Install the newest libasound package from proposed * Check for regression on any hardware with a simple use of `aplay <file.wav>` * We don't have the kernel-space feature right now, and thus cannot test the actual feature that comes from upstream. [ Where problems could occur ] * The new name could be wrong, and the hardware would not get enabled. That would require a patch upstream, and then a backport again. Assuming NVIDIA (who carried the fix upstream) did not make that mistake, since it got merged to main. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to alsa-lib in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2111271 Title: Add HDA-Intel config alias for snd_hda_acpi to enable discovery of ACPI-advertised devices Status in alsa-lib package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in alsa-lib source package in Noble: In Progress Status in alsa-lib source package in Oracular: In Progress Status in alsa-lib source package in Plucky: In Progress Status in alsa-lib source package in Questing: In Progress Bug description: There is a new audio driver upstream: https://lore.kernel.org/all/aCXswg1gr6cufyzp@ddadap- lakeline.nvidia.com/.
