Bug Description

After updating Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with the latest kernel, sound stops working and the settings panel only shows "Dummy" sound.
Selecting 5.8 kernels in Grub2 gets the sound working again.

Output of lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
Release: 20.04

Output of apt-cache policy linux-image-5.11*generic
linux-image-5.11.0-22-generic:

What I expected to happen:
Everything should continue working after a routine system upgrade, including a new kernel version.

What happened:
After a normal system update, which included the new kernel version 5.11, sound stopped working and device disappeared from settings.
