Headphone sounds have stopped working after upgrade from 21.10 to 22.04
LTS.

Sound bar is movement is seen in sound settings under output device: 
Headphones - Comet Lake PCH cAVS - but no sound output from headphones.

  My investigation process:

  Dell XPS 17 (9700) comes with Windows 10 preinstalled, where sounds
  worked.

  I installed Ubuntu 20.04 LTS fresh, sounds did not work on speakers or 3.5mm 
headphones,
  using linux-image-5.4.0-42-generic, I did not try blutooth.

  I sudo apt upgrade, dist-upgrade to get kernels

  linux-image-5.8.0-38-generic
  linux-image-5.8.0-40-generic

  Sounds did not work.
  I download linux-image-unsigned-5.10.9-051009-generic.
  Sounds did not work.

  I upgrade Dell XPS 9700 firmware from 1.3 to 1.63.
  Sounds did not work.

  After googling I found this solution in the comments:
  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1270442/no-sound-on-xps-17-9700

  """

  Download and install dkms module:

  https://launchpad.net/~canonical-hwe-team/+archive/ubuntu/pc-oem-
  dkms/+packages

  Alternatively, you can install linux-oem-20.04, it will install
  the 5.6 kernel with the above driver. Your system may be more stable
  with 5.4 kernel since it is in wide use.

  Manually install sof-firmware from Arch Linux:

  https://archlinux.pkgs.org/rolling/archlinux-extra-x86_64/sof-
  firmware-1.5.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst.html

  You will need to delete the existing "sof" and "sof-tplg" files
  from the Ubuntu linux-firmware package first. Note if this package
  gets updated from Canoncial and they don't update these, you will have
  to delete and then reextract. Files go into the
  /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof and /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg
  folders.

  Manually install the ucm2 files:

  http://xps17.ddns.net/sof-soundwire.zip

  These go into /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/sof-soundwire. Delete the
  contents of the existing sof-soundwire folder (if you have it) and
  replace them with the ones from the archive.

  Reboot. You should now have all your audio devices available. If speakers 
do not play, you may need to run alsamixer (non-root) from a terminal and 
unmute and set the mixer levels all the way up.
  """


  This solution worked for me on linux-image-5.6.0-1042-oem AFTER
  manually opening alsa-mixer and changing soundcard to sof. The sound
  would otherwise just show 'dummy'.

  My sounds still do not work on 5.8 or 5.10, full name listed above. I
  did not get to test this temporary fix with 5.4.

Hello,

I installed the 5.11.0-27 but still no sound.

Let's says the kernel is good, are there any settings involved ? Like
kernel startup parameter or any other ones ?

  My investigation process:

  Dell XPS 17 (9700) comes with Windows 10 preinstalled, where sounds
  worked.

  I installed Ubuntu 20.04 LTS fresh, sounds did not work on speakers or 3.5mm 
headphones,
  using linux-image-5.4.0-42-generic, I did not try blutooth.

  I sudo apt upgrade, dist-upgrade to get kernels

  linux-image-5.8.0-38-generic
  linux-image-5.8.0-40-generic

  Sounds did not work.
  I download linux-image-unsigned-5.10.9-051009-generic.
  Sounds did not work.

  I upgrade Dell XPS 9700 firmware from 1.3 to 1.63.
  Sounds did not work.

  Download and install dkms module:

  Alternatively, you can install linux-oem-20.04, it will install
  the 5.6 kernel with the above driver. Your system may be more stable
  with 5.4 kernel since it is in wide use.

  Manually install sof-firmware from Arch Linux:

  https://archlinux.pkgs.org/rolling/archlinux-extra-x86_64/sof-
  firmware-1.5.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst.html

  You will need to delete the existing "sof" and "sof-tplg" files
  from the Ubuntu linux-firmware package first. Note if this package
  gets updated from Canoncial and they don't update these, you will have
  to delete and then reextract. Files go into the
  /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof and /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg
  folders.

  Manually install the ucm2 files:

  http://xps17.ddns.net/sof-soundwire.zip

  These go into /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/sof-soundwire. Delete the
  contents of the existing sof-soundwire folder (if you have it) and
  replace them with the ones from the archive.

  Reboot. You should now have all your audio devices available. If speakers 
do not play, you may need to run alsamixer (non-root) from a terminal and 
unmute and set the mixer levels all the way up.

  This solution worked for me on linux-image-5.6.0-1042-oem AFTER

  sounds not working on Dell XPS 17 (9700)

Bug description:
  My investigation process:

  Dell XPS 17 (9700) comes with Windows 10 preinstalled, where sounds
  worked.

  I installed Ubuntu 20.04 LTS fresh, sounds did not work on speakers or 3.5mm 
headphones,
  using linux-image-5.4.0-42-generic, I did not try blutooth.

  I sudo apt upgrade, dist-upgrade to get kernels

  linux-image-5.8.0-38-generic
  linux-image-5.8.0-40-generic

  Sounds did not work.
  I download linux-image-unsigned-5.10.9-051009-generic.
  Sounds did not work.

  I upgrade Dell XPS 9700 firmware from 1.3 to 1.63.
  Sounds did not work.

  After googling I found this solution in the comments:
  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1270442/no-sound-on-xps-17-9700

  """

  Download and install dkms module:

  https://launchpad.net/~canonical-hwe-team/+archive/ubuntu/pc-oem-
  dkms/+packages

  Alternatively, you can install linux-oem-20.04, it will install
  the 5.6 kernel with the above driver. Your system may be more stable
  with 5.4 kernel since it is in wide use.

  Manually install sof-firmware from Arch Linux:

  https://archlinux.pkgs.org/rolling/archlinux-extra-x86_64/sof-
  firmware-1.5.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst.html

  You will need to delete the existing "sof" and "sof-tplg" files
  from the Ubuntu linux-firmware package first. Note if this package
  gets updated from Canoncial and they don't update these, you will have
  to delete and then reextract. Files go into the
  /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof and /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg
  folders.

  Manually install the ucm2 files:

  http://xps17.ddns.net/sof-soundwire.zip

  These go into /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/sof-soundwire. Delete the
  contents of the existing sof-soundwire folder (if you have it) and
  replace them with the ones from the archive.

  Reboot. You should now have all your audio devices available. If speakers 
do not play, you may need to run alsamixer (non-root) from a terminal and 
unmute and set the mixer levels all the way up.
  """


  This solution worked for me on linux-image-5.6.0-1042-oem AFTER
  manually opening alsa-mixer and changing soundcard to sof. The sound
  would otherwise just show 'dummy'.

  My sounds still do not work on 5.8 or 5.10, full name listed above. I
  did not get to test this temporary fix with 5.4.

I had tried linux-headers-5.11.0-18-generic and the sound still doesn't work on 
it. I have myself built kernel linux-headers-5.11.17 that works great.
I built it with params
CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE_SOF_MACH=m
CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_USER_FRIENDLY_LONG_NAMES=y

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1912673] Re: sounds not working on Dell XPS 17 (9700)

2021-05-21 Thread Hui Wang
Hello, this machine has the soundwire audio design, the 5.6.0-oem kernel
and 5.10.0-oem kernel are expected to support the audio on this machine
(and the latest linux-firmware and alsa-ucm-conf in the 20.04).

And We are trying to let 5.11.0-generic kernel to support the audio on
this machine, could you please install those kernels and check if the
audio works or not, and upload the related dmesg.

thx.

  sounds not working on Dell XPS 17 (9700)

  Fix Released

Bug description:
  My investigation process:

  Dell XPS 17 (9700) comes with Windows 10 preinstalled, where sounds
  worked.

  I installed Ubuntu 20.04 LTS fresh, sounds did not work on speakers or 3.5mm 
headphones,
  using linux-image-5.4.0-42-generic, I did not try blutooth.

  I sudo apt upgrade, dist-upgrade to get kernels

  linux-image-5.8.0-38-generic
  linux-image-5.8.0-40-generic

  Sounds did not work.
  I download linux-image-unsigned-5.10.9-051009-generic.
  Sounds did not work.

  I upgrade Dell XPS 9700 firmware from 1.3 to 1.63.
  Sounds did not work.

  After googling I found this solution in the comments:
  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1270442/no-sound-on-xps-17-9700

  """

  Download and install dkms module:

  https://launchpad.net/~canonical-hwe-team/+archive/ubuntu/pc-oem-
  dkms/+packages

  Alternatively, you can install linux-oem-20.04, it will install
  the 5.6 kernel with the above driver. Your system may be more stable
  with 5.4 kernel since it is in wide use.

  Manually install sof-firmware from Arch Linux:

  https://archlinux.pkgs.org/rolling/archlinux-extra-x86_64/sof-
  firmware-1.5.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst.html

  You will need to delete the existing "sof" and "sof-tplg" files
  from the Ubuntu linux-firmware package first. Note if this package
  gets updated from Canoncial and they don't update these, you will have
  to delete and then reextract. Files go into the
  /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof and /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg
  folders.

  Manually install the ucm2 files:

  http://xps17.ddns.net/sof-soundwire.zip

  These go into /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/sof-soundwire. Delete the
  contents of the existing sof-soundwire folder (if you have it) and
  replace them with the ones from the archive.

  Reboot. You should now have all your audio devices available. If speakers 
do not play, you may need to run alsamixer (non-root) from a terminal and 
unmute and set the mixer levels all the way up.
  """


  This solution worked for me on linux-image-5.6.0-1042-oem AFTER
  manually opening alsa-mixer and changing soundcard to sof. The sound
  would otherwise just show 'dummy'.

  My sounds still do not work on 5.8 or 5.10, full name listed above. I
  did not get to test this temporary fix with 5.4.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1912673] Re: sounds not working on Dell XPS 17 (9700)

2021-05-12 Thread chungonn
I have just upgraded to the released kernel version 5.11.0-17. The sound
and mic still not working. Is there any chance this is going to be
fixed.

My XPS 9700 is half baked even with an external usb headset. I have to
boot to Windows 10 each time I need to do virtual meeting.

  My investigation process:

  Dell XPS 17 (9700) comes with Windows 10 preinstalled, where sounds
  worked.

  I installed Ubuntu 20.04 LTS fresh, sounds did not work on speakers or 3.5mm 
headphones,
  using linux-image-5.4.0-42-generic, I did not try blutooth.

  I sudo apt upgrade, dist-upgrade to get kernels

  linux-image-5.8.0-38-generic
  linux-image-5.8.0-40-generic

  Sounds did not work.
  I download linux-image-unsigned-5.10.9-051009-generic.
  Sounds did not work.

  I upgrade Dell XPS 9700 firmware from 1.3 to 1.63.
  Sounds did not work.

  After googling I found this solution in the comments:
  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1270442/no-sound-on-xps-17-9700

  """

  Download and install dkms module:

  https://launchpad.net/~canonical-hwe-team/+archive/ubuntu/pc-oem-
  dkms/+packages

  Alternatively, you can install linux-oem-20.04, it will install
  the 5.6 kernel with the above driver. Your system may be more stable
  with 5.4 kernel since it is in wide use.

  Manually install sof-firmware from Arch Linux:

  https://archlinux.pkgs.org/rolling/archlinux-extra-x86_64/sof-
  firmware-1.5.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst.html

  You will need to delete the existing "sof" and "sof-tplg" files
  from the Ubuntu linux-firmware package first. Note if this package
  gets updated from Canoncial and they don't update these, you will have
  to delete and then reextract. Files go into the
  /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof and /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg
  folders.

  Manually install the ucm2 files:

  http://xps17.ddns.net/sof-soundwire.zip

  These go into /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/sof-soundwire. Delete the
  contents of the existing sof-soundwire folder (if you have it) and
  replace them with the ones from the archive.

  Reboot. You should now have all your audio devices available. If speakers 
do not play, you may need to run alsamixer (non-root) from a terminal and 
unmute and set the mixer levels all the way up.
  """


  This solution worked for me on linux-image-5.6.0-1042-oem AFTER
  manually opening alsa-mixer and changing soundcard to sof. The sound

I believe that this bug for 21.04 is the same as
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1924685 and the
root cause is the misconfiguration of kernel flags.

Upgraded to 21.04 on 9 Apr 2021 and I see the intel sof module being
loaded, but still no sound on this system (XPS 17)

  sounds not working on Dell XPS 17 (9700)

Bug description:
  My investigation process:

  Dell XPS 17 (9700) comes with Windows 10 preinstalled, where sounds
  worked.

  I installed Ubuntu 20.04 LTS fresh, sounds did not work on speakers or 3.5mm 
headphones,
  using linux-image-5.4.0-42-generic, I did not try blutooth.

  I sudo apt upgrade, dist-upgrade to get kernels

  linux-image-5.8.0-38-generic
  linux-image-5.8.0-40-generic

  Sounds did not work.
  I download linux-image-unsigned-5.10.9-051009-generic.
  Sounds did not work.

  I upgrade Dell XPS 9700 firmware from 1.3 to 1.63.
  Sounds did not work.

  After googling I found this solution in the comments:
  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1270442/no-sound-on-xps-17-9700

  """

  Download and install dkms module:

  https://launchpad.net/~canonical-hwe-team/+archive/ubuntu/pc-oem-
  dkms/+packages

  Alternatively, you can install linux-oem-20.04, it will install
  the 5.6 kernel with the above driver. Your system may be more stable
  with 5.4 kernel since it is in wide use.

  Manually install sof-firmware from Arch Linux:

  https://archlinux.pkgs.org/rolling/archlinux-extra-x86_64/sof-
  firmware-1.5.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst.html

  You will need to delete the existing "sof" and "sof-tplg" files
  from the Ubuntu linux-firmware package first. Note if this package
  gets updated from Canoncial and they don't update these, you will have
  to delete and then reextract. Files go into the
  /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof and /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg
  folders.

  Manually install the ucm2 files:

  http://xps17.ddns.net/sof-soundwire.zip

  These go into /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/sof-soundwire. Delete the
  contents of the existing sof-soundwire folder (if you have it) and
  replace them with the ones from the archive.

  Reboot. You should now have all your audio devices available. If speakers 
do not play, you may need to run alsamixer (non-root) from a terminal and 
unmute and set the mixer levels all the way up.
  """


  This solution worked for me on linux-image-5.6.0-1042-oem AFTER
  manually opening alsa-mixer and changing soundcard to sof. The sound
  would otherwise just show 'dummy'.

  My sounds still do not work on 5.8 or 5.10, full name listed above. I
  did not get to test this temporary fix with 5.4.

Bug description:
  My investigation process:

  Dell XPS 17 (9700) comes with Windows 10 preinstalled, where sounds
  worked.

  I installed Ubuntu 20.04 LTS fresh, sounds did not work on speakers or 3.5mm 
headphones,
  using linux-image-5.4.0-42-generic, I did not try blutooth.

  I sudo apt upgrade, dist-upgrade to get kernels

  linux-image-5.8.0-38-generic
  linux-image-5.8.0-40-generic

  Sounds did not work.
  I download linux-image-unsigned-5.10.9-051009-generic.
  Sounds did not work.

  I upgrade Dell XPS 9700 firmware from 1.3 to 1.63.
  Sounds did not work.

  After googling I found this solution in the comments:
  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1270442/no-sound-on-xps-17-9700

  """

  Download and install dkms module:

  https://launchpad.net/~canonical-hwe-team/+archive/ubuntu/pc-oem-
  dkms/+packages

  Alternatively, you can install linux-oem-20.04, it will install
  the 5.6 kernel with the above driver. Your system may be more stable
  with 5.4 kernel since it is in wide use.

  Manually install sof-firmware from Arch Linux:

  https://archlinux.pkgs.org/rolling/archlinux-extra-x86_64/sof-
  firmware-1.5.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst.html

  You will need to delete the existing "sof" and "sof-tplg" files
  from the Ubuntu linux-firmware package first. Note if this package
  gets updated from Canoncial and they don't update these, you will have
  to delete and then reextract. Files go into the
  /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof and /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg
  folders.

  Manually install the ucm2 files:

  http://xps17.ddns.net/sof-soundwire.zip

  These go into /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/sof-soundwire. Delete the
  contents of the existing sof-soundwire folder (if you have it) and
  replace them with the ones from the archive.

  Reboot. You should now have all your audio devices available. If speakers 
do not play, you may need to run alsamixer (non-root) from a terminal and 
unmute and set the mixer levels all the way up.
  """


  This solution worked for me on linux-image-5.6.0-1042-oem AFTER
  manually opening alsa-mixer and changing soundcard to sof. The sound
  would otherwise just show 'dummy'.

  My sounds still do not work on 5.8 or 5.10, full name listed above. I
  did not get to test this temporary fix with 5.4.

I've checked kernel configs for Arch, Redhat and Debian.
And I suspect that only thing is missing to make it work is following kernel 
config option:
CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE_SOF_MACH=m

  My investigation process:

  Dell XPS 17 (9700) comes with Windows 10 preinstalled, where sounds
  worked.

  I installed Ubuntu 20.04 LTS fresh, sounds did not work on speakers or 3.5mm 
headphones,
  using linux-image-5.4.0-42-generic, I did not try blutooth.

  I sudo apt upgrade, dist-upgrade to get kernels

  linux-image-5.8.0-38-generic
  linux-image-5.8.0-40-generic

  Sounds did not work.
  I download linux-image-unsigned-5.10.9-051009-generic.
  Sounds did not work.

  I upgrade Dell XPS 9700 firmware from 1.3 to 1.63.
  Sounds did not work.

  After googling I found this solution in the comments:
  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1270442/no-sound-on-xps-17-9700

  """

  Download and install dkms module:

  https://launchpad.net/~canonical-hwe-team/+archive/ubuntu/pc-oem-
  dkms/+packages

  Alternatively, you can install linux-oem-20.04, it will install
  the 5.6 kernel with the above driver. Your system may be more stable
  with 5.4 kernel since it is in wide use.

  Manually install sof-firmware from Arch Linux:

  https://archlinux.pkgs.org/rolling/archlinux-extra-x86_64/sof-
  firmware-1.5.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst.html

  You will need to delete the existing "sof" and "sof-tplg" files
  from the Ubuntu linux-firmware package first. Note if this package
  gets updated from Canoncial and they don't update these, you will have
  to delete and then reextract. Files go into the
  /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof and /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg
  folders.

  Manually install the ucm2 files:

  http://xps17.ddns.net/sof-soundwire.zip

  These go into /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/sof-soundwire. Delete the
  contents of the existing sof-soundwire folder (if you have it) and
  replace them with the ones from the archive.

  Reboot. You should now have all your audio devices available. If speakers 
do not play, you may need to run alsamixer (non-root) from a terminal and 
unmute and set the mixer levels all the way up.
  """


  This solution worked for me on linux-image-5.6.0-1042-oem AFTER
  manually opening alsa-mixer and changing soundcard to sof. The sound
  would otherwise just show 'dummy'.

  My sounds still do not work on 5.8 or 5.10, full name listed above. I
  did not get to test this temporary fix with 5.4.

Title:
  sounds not working on Dell XPS 17 (9700)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  My investigation process:

  Dell XPS 17 (9700) comes with Windows 10 preinstalled, where sounds
  worked.

  I installed Ubuntu 20.04 LTS fresh, sounds did not work on speakers or 3.5mm 
headphones,
  using linux-image-5.4.0-42-generic, I did not try blutooth.

  I sudo apt upgrade, dist-upgrade to get kernels

  linux-image-5.8.0-38-generic
  linux-image-5.8.0-40-generic

  Sounds did not work.
  I download linux-image-unsigned-5.10.9-051009-generic.
  Sounds did not work.

  I upgrade Dell XPS 9700 firmware from 1.3 to 1.63.
  Sounds did not work.

  After googling I found this solution in the comments:
  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1270442/no-sound-on-xps-17-9700

  """

  Download and install dkms module:

  https://launchpad.net/~canonical-hwe-team/+archive/ubuntu/pc-oem-
  dkms/+packages

  Alternatively, you can install linux-oem-20.04, it will install
  the 5.6 kernel with the above driver. Your system may be more stable
  with 5.4 kernel since it is in wide use.

  Manually install sof-firmware from Arch Linux:

  https://archlinux.pkgs.org/rolling/archlinux-extra-x86_64/sof-
  firmware-1.5.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst.html

  You will need to delete the existing "sof" and "sof-tplg" files
  from the Ubuntu linux-firmware package first. Note if this package
  gets updated from Canoncial and they don't update these, you will have
  to delete and then reextract. Files go into the
  /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof and /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg
  folders.

  Manually install the ucm2 files:

  http://xps17.ddns.net/sof-soundwire.zip

  These go into /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/sof-soundwire. Delete the
  contents of the existing sof-soundwire folder (if you have it) and
  replace them with the ones from the archive.

  Reboot. You should now have all your audio devices available. If speakers 
do not play, you may need to run alsamixer (non-root) from a terminal and 
unmute and set the mixer levels all the way up.
  """


  This solution worked for me on linux-image-5.6.0-1042-oem AFTER
  manually opening alsa-mixer and changing soundcard to sof. The sound
  would otherwise just show 'dummy'.

  My sounds still do not work on 5.8 or 5.10, full name listed above. I
  did not get to test this temporary fix with 5.4.

  based on some google research, this seems to be a common problem:
