I can independently confirm this issue on my system.

**My hardware:**
- Dedicated GPU: Sapphire AMD (PCI ID: 1002:7590)
- Integrated GPU: AMD Radeon RX Vega 6 (PCI ID: 1002:1636)
- Distribution: Linux Mint 22.3
- Kernel: 7.0.0-42-generic
- Monitor: Acer HA220Q (1920x1080, HDMI)

**Problem:**

After the firmware update from 0ubuntu3.3 to 0ubuntu3.4 on November 5,
2026, my monitor showed No Signal during normal boot.

I had to use `nomodeset` to start Linux, but GPU hardware acceleration
stopped working and OpenGL used llvmpipe software rendering.

**Kernel errors:**

```text
failed to load ucode DMCUB(0x3F)
LOAD_IP_FW failed
Wait for DMUB auto-load failed: 3
DMCUB error - collecting diagnostic data
```

**Successful workaround:**

I downgraded `linux-firmware-amd-graphics` to version 0ubuntu3.3 and
rebuilt initramfs for all installed kernels.

After completely powering off and restarting, Linux Mint booted normally
without `nomodeset`.

Both AMD GPUs now use the amdgpu driver, and OpenGL hardware
acceleration works correctly.

I can confirm that version 0ubuntu3.3 works on my hardware, while
version 0ubuntu3.4 causes the display failure.

Please investigate this firmware regression and provide a corrected
update.
