Hi jhubuntu20,

First, hopefully I can do you a solid and tell you how I fixed my
brightness control at least (cause mine is a Galaxy Book2 Pro also, but
with the ARC graphics).  What worked for me was:

    -Created /etc/modprobe.d/i915.conf with
        options i915 enable_dpcd_backlight=3
    - Regenerated the initramfs:
        sudo update-initramfs -u -k all

Hope that helps, unless you already tried.

On my side, I am running kernel 6.0.0-1006-oem (which I got from the
linux-oem-22.04b package, as opposed to the mainline tool, which i may
try though). I tried that in hopes it would help, in addition to many
other things (disabling windows fast boot on my other drive, disabling
secure boot and fast bios, setting probe_mask=1, iommu=off, and others).
Also tried playing with hdajackretask, because I'd be happy with
retasking / giving up my working headphone jack for the speakers, but
haven't figured that out.

Also, when I tried your TO912.sh script (the first thing I tried actually), I 
was doing it following the instructions  here -- 
https://forum.manjaro.org/t/howto-set-up-the-audio-card-in-samsung-galaxy-book/37090
This includes also blacklisting snd-hda-intel, removing alsa-conf, plus more.  
Should I not be doing that?  (I've tried both ways though).

The problem is I just don't have the right mental model for what's going
on, so trying everything too blindly... but I'm trying to understand
more.  Most things have no effect (i.e., headphones work, speakers
don't).  However, the one tweak that has made the most effect is:

    options snd-intel-dspcfg dsp_driver=##

    - When I set this to "3", or leave the setting out (i.e., as it was on 
fresh install), alsamixer shows "sof-hda-dsp" for "Card" and "Realtek ALC298" 
for "Chip".  When I use hdajackretask, it hangs completely when applying the 
retasking (and I've stopped pulseaudio, etc.), and the machine will hang on 
next shutdown.  
    - But if I set it to "1", alsamixer then shows "HDA Intel PCH" for "Card", 
and still "Realtek..." for chip.  I can use hdajackretask without it hanging 
up.  And when I plug in headphones, I see a new "Headset or Headphone" GUI 
popup.  But my mic doesn't look like it's working. (Also, I need to not 
blacklist snd-hda-intel for this config to work, otherwise I only have "Dummy 
Output")

Do you happen to know which of those situations seems "more right"?  I
fear that there's more than one problem going on at once, and I wonder
which setting (3 vs 1) I should use as I experiment with the other
possibilities (your script, etc.)

Lastly, I notice if I look in alsa-info, its reporting "line_outs=1",
but "speaker_outs=0" in almost all configurations, and its not binding
either line_out or speaker to anything in "/devices" (though it is
binding the HDMIs, headphone, and sometimes the Mic).  I checked my
older laptop, however, which has speaker sound, and it reports the same
(though its running a 4.xx kernel and the ALC256).

I don't know if any of this gives any clues, and I apologize for my
posts length and poor formatting.. I'm just trying to make sense of all
this.

Title:
  [950SBE/951SBE, Realtek ALC298, Speaker, Internal] No sound on
  internal speakers, very very quiet on headphones

Status in Linux:
  New
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I've been googling this issue for 10's of hours and tried many things.

  Relase of Ubuntu: 19.10

  Expected outcome: Music plays on the internal speakers and headphones.

  Actual outcome: I can barely hear audio using headphones with volume
  turned up to 150%.  Absolutely nothing comes out of the speakers. (The
  speakers sound great under Windows 10.)

  Complete alsa-info output is attached, but here are some snippets:
