PCI/internal sound card not detected on a Swift SF314-57

Please put this firmware to /lib/firmware/intel/sof/; then reboot, and upload the dmesg.

If you want your machine use legacy audio driver instead of sof driver, you could add:

options snd-hda-intel dsp_driver=0 in the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf, then reboot.

Hi Hui,

thanks I was already experimenting with sof-icl.ri from the sof project. I also compiled and tested my own version. When I put the file you provided and then modprobe for snd_sof_pci then I get the following dmesg:

I see in lsmod it got loaded, but no sound cards.

I also compiled my own version of sof-pci-dev.ko using linux-5.5-rc1. What is strange I had to compile it with EXTRAVERSION="-050500rc1-generic SMP mod_unload" for insmod to accept it. The compiled driver also did not help to find any sound card.

I will try now with "options snd-hda-intel dsp_driver=0"

OMG, with dsp_driver=0 it works. Thanks so much :)

It should work out of the box without the user having to specify any options.

1. There does not seem to be an Ubuntu package for Sound Open Firmware yet. Adam, does the pre-built firmware file from https://github.com/thesofproject/sof/releases work? Linux 5.3, 5.4, 5.5-rc1?

2. With the firmware file installed, does Linux 5.3 work with `dsp_driver=0`? Please attach the Linux messages from the non-working and working boot.

Off-topic: Adam, you should also install the other firmware files like for graphics.

`apt install linux-firmware` should fix that.

Hi Paul,

> does the pre-built firmware file from https://github.com/thesofproject/sof/releases work?

I tried the releases 1.4.1 and 1.3 as well as followed their instractions to build from latest soource. The sof-icl.ri did not work for me with 5.5-rc1 and 5.4. I did not check for 5.3 because my sound card (Intel Corporation Device [8086:34c8]) was working well already with the snd_hda_intel module.

> 2. With the firmware file installed, does Linux 5.3 work with `dsp_driver=0`?
Yes. Without and with that option 5.3 will load snd_hda_intel for the sound card.

> Please attach the Linux messages from the non-working and working boot.

Find attached the outputs. I think the interesting bit is in the not working boot:

I have linux-firmware installed. The video looks good for now, so I will ignore that issue :|

[Sorry, I wasn’t subscribed to the notifications.]

@hui.wang, your attached firmware, what version is that?

    $ md5sum sof-icl.ri

@adamfubuntu, do you still have the problem *without* `dsp_driver=0` on an up-to-date Ubuntu 19.10 with Linux 5.5-rc6?

A Fedora user reported the same issue in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1772498#c16, and the created an upstream GitHub issue https://github.com/thesofproject/sof/issues/2126.

Please update the meta-information of this bug accordingly.

Hi Paul

> do you still have the problem *without* `dsp_driver=0` on an up-to-date Ubuntu 19.10 with Linux 5.5-rc6?

I just tried the 5.5 release https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.5/

I also tried newest 1.4.2 from sof project and updadted their github issue.

The trick with dsp_driver=0 seems not to work anymore. I resorted to adding "snd_hda_intel.dmic_detect=0" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT as suggested at Red Hat link you posted and will get the snd_hda_intel driver:

[ 151.393221] snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1f.3: dmic_detect option is deprecated, pass snd-intel-dspcfg.dsp_driver=1 option instead

That works well for me now.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Hi, A beginner user with almost the same laptop here (SF314-57G, just an extra graphics card).
I'm encountering the same bug with all ubuntu based distro's. The wierd thing is it will work just fine right after installation. The sound goes off right after the first update of the OS and a reboot. If I could contribute to get this fixed please let me know, Thanks!
