Following up to my previous post, there is a much simpler way to tell
the kernel where to look for the extra firmware without messing with
grub.

/lib/firmware/updates

is mounted rw and can be used to place the missing firmware. So the
updated steps would be,

apt download firmware-sof-signed
dpkg-deb -x firmware-sof-signed_*.deb /tmp/extracted
sudo mv /tmp/extracted/lib/firmware/intel /lib/firmware/updates

Reboot, and audio should be fully functional.

Might be worth ensuring correct permissions,

sudo find /lib/firmware/updates -type f -exec chmod 0644 {} \;
sudo find /lib/firmware/updates -type d -exec chmod 0755 {} \;
