[Solved] Sound Not Working HP Spectre x360

[nicolberg]

Hello, I need some help with getting sound to work.

I followed the alsa & pulseaudio installation instructions but my sound cards arent detected with `aplay -l` and there is no `/proc/asound` directory.

modprobing any of the following drivers doesn't seem to work: "snd_hda_intel, snd_soc_skl, snd_sof_pci"

Hi
Welcome to Gentoo!

Selinux is in permissive mode no?
Also
plz install
linux-firmware and sof-firmware
If problem still persists plz install
gentoo-kernel-bin

modprobing any of the following drivers doesn't seem to work: "snd_hda_intel, snd_soc_skl, snd_sof_pci"

What happens?

[NeddySeagoon]

nicolberg,

Welcome to Gentoo. I don't think you are running the kernel that bas built from that config file.

Check the date/time in

Code: Select all

uname -a

Thats the build date/time of the running kernel.
Have you made a newer one?

gentoo-kernel-bin is not a fix, its a workaround to allow you to delay fixing this yourself.

Make friends with wgetpaste so you don't need to share fragments.

When modprobe fails, yyou will get an error message and often more information at the end of dmesg.
Both are useful.

nicolberg,

The kernel bits and pieces are not correct or you have got the kernel correct but are not using the newest kernel.
What does

Code: Select all

lspci -nnk

say?

That will tell us what we need to identify the drivers for your PCI sound cards.

Look at the date/time in

Code: Select all

uname -a

that is the build date/time of the running kernel.
Is it what you expected?

What does

Code: Select all

dmesg | grep -i codec

output?
It will all fit into a post.

[nicolberg]

I figured it might be good to mention that I have alsa-utils emerged but not sof-firmware

there is a dmesg output that was not there before so

	Kernel driver in use: sof-audio-pci
	Kernel modules: snd_hda_intel, snd_soc_skl, snd_sof_pci

Thats good as far as it goes. That's the bus end of your one sound card.
The bus end connectn to the output end which is not shown. That needs the right CODEC drivers in the kernel.

Your running kernel was built at

Thu Jul 29 15:10:32 EDT 2021

and this topic was started at Thu Jul 29, 2021 8:00 pm (BST)
BST is EDT +05:00 so the topic was started at about the same time as your running kernel was made.
The point here is that if you have made a kernel since the topic started, its not being used.

All your sound bits appear to be present and all built as loadable modules. That's good. A mix of loadable modules and built in often fails as the bits don't come together in the right order. That matters.

There are no "Failed to bind CODEC errors" in dmesg, which I was half expecting. Lets poke at codecs a little more.
What does

Code: Select all

grep -R -i codec /proc/asound/

tell?
On a system with the drivers loaded, it tells to codecs. I'm not sure if it will work for you.

I'm not sure if you need sof-firmware. dmesg will tell all about missing firmware.

Code: Select all

dmesg | grep -i firmware

[nicolberg]

you were completely right: I was missing steps in my kernel upgrade script and these links were the most helpful for upgrading completely

* viewtopic-t-539024.html
* https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Kernel/Upgrade

here's some results & some from a speekertest

* aplay -l : http://0x0.st/-42n.txt

speaker-test -t wav produced iterations of:

Time per period = 3.028638
0 - Front Left
1 - Front Right
Time per period = 3.031735
0 - Front Left
1 - Front Right

(had trouble using the correct flags to get wgetpaste to work with it)

but no sound coming out. I tried using alsamixer & it lets me enable the sound card sof-hda-dsp

even still and turning up the volumes on all outputs produces no sound with the speaker-test. I also tried speaker-test -t pink -P 2 and

Code: Select all

... turning up the volumes on all outputs ...

That doesn't work by design. Your sound card can work with the 44.1kHz sample rate of CD Digital audio, or the 48.0kHz sample rate used by digital audio. HDMI and the like, but not both at the same time.
When both are enabled, only digital works, which is not what you want.
All outputs with S/PDIF or IEC in their names must be muted or the analogue outputs will remain silent.

[nicolberg]

NeddySeagoon,

I found http://0x0.st/-4pn.txt in /proc/asound/devices

Code: Select all

grep -R -i codec /proc/asound/

returns http://0x0.st/-4p7.txt

Ah, understood.
I went ahead and (with no avail) ran a speaker-test using both the wav & pink noises after configuring only "Master" and "speaker" unmuted.
I used viewtopic-t-588887.html to guide me with making sure alsamixer saved the config & making a config for it.


with the activated sound card, my alsamixer options are:

Master Headphone Speaker Mic_Boost S/PDIF S/PDIF_1 S/PDIF_2 Auto-mute PGA1.0_1 PGA3.0_3 PGA7.0_7 PGA8.0_8 PGA9.0_9

Now comes some trial an error. Different systems wire the same CODECS differently and a the snd-hda-intel module does not always detect it properly.
You may need to pass it a model= parameter at module load time.
There is a list of models in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/sound/hd-audio/models.rst Its a big list but we know

Code: Select all

Codec: Realtek ALC285

so we are only interested in the ALC285 subset.

The process is

Code: Select all

modprobe -r snd-hda-intel 
modprobe snd-hda-intel model=laptop-amic

Then test ... working your way down the list of models that can apply to you.

You may not unload a module that is in use. At least, not usefully, so you may need to unload other modules to be able to unload snd-hda-intel and probbaly reload them after snd-hda-intel has been reloaded.

Oh, while I think of it, if you have a separate headphone control, that can be mixed up with front or master.

After some time reconfiguring my kernel and uninstalling pulseaudio (trying to not use it) `aplay -l` and `alsamixer` stopped working.


first thing I did is ran a `comm -3` (and diff) to check if there were any differences between the prev/current .config files and no difference was found.
Same case with /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf (no changes)


the lspci -vv output changed a little bit but I imagine it's pretty insignificant

Please confirm you have sof-firmware installed, this card will not work without it.

Yes http://0x0.st/-JDR.txt

Great, could you please redo alsa configuration and this time select everything as modules, i.e. CONFIG_SOUND=m and below.

Please also enable CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE_SOF_MACH and maybe also CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_SKL_HDA_DSP_GENERIC_MACH

Assuming you meant to modulerize those, I did it and got the following kernel recompiled recompiled it with that on my config: http://0x0.st/-yNX.txt

here's the output to aplay -l : http://0x0.st/-yN8.txt
here's the output to alsamixer : http://0x0.st/-yNK.txt

could you go over more of what you mean by redoing the alsa config?

[garrison]

Yes now it is all modular! Assuming you installed modules / updated initrd / booted new image, would you mind providing output of alsa-info.sh, collect it like this into /tmp/alsa-info.txt

Code: Select all

alsa-info.sh --no-upload --stdout > /tmp/alsa-info.txt

Errors about shared library are likely due to how you were removing pulseaudio. You will need to rebuild alsa-plugins without pulseaudio flag set, or move away /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf.d/51-pulseaudio-probe.conf which references that shared library in error.

Please list your installed package versions for:

Code: Select all

alsa-lib
alsa-topology-conf
alsa-ucm-conf

If any is missing please install and check if 'aplay -l' output changes. You probably need the latest versions of these installed.

If still no fruit please provide output of 'dmesg | grep sof-audio-pci' hope there will be a descriptive error

Hmm, it seems my /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf is a file. I do have that/those files in the /etc/alsa/conf.d/ directory.

Here they are listed followed by their contents: http://0x0.st/-ySM.txt

My instinct was to remove all pulsaudio related files but keep 60-upmix.conf & 60-vdownmix.conf but here's an update currently


The outputted error codes changed after adding the kernel modules you recommended but not completely gone. So I decided to add them all as modules. Hopefully that won't increase my kernel size too much since they're modules.
That made alsamixer and aplay work normally.

I was having trouble saving alsamixer and making sense of the different ways to update/save alsamixer but, since getting rid of those (2) pulseaudio files in /etc/alsa/conf.d/, speaker-test -t wav is connecting to only the left side but sound is coming out!

Please list your installed package versions for:

Code: Select all

alsa-lib
alsa-topology-conf
alsa-ucm-conf

They're all 1.2.4 http://0x0.st/-ySq.txt

If still no fruit please provide output of 'dmesg | grep sof-audio-pci' hope there will be a descriptive error

Here's the current output to that anyways http://0x0.st/-ySb.txt

If audio works you probably want to rebuild alsa-plugins without pulseaudio in USE flags, or just add pulseaudio back and rebuild alsa-plugins with pulseaudio in USE flags.

This particular card may still require updating alsa-lib, alsa-ucm-conf and alsa-topology to latest versions (which are still in ~arch) - you can try unmasking them.

speaker-test -t wav is connecting to only the left side but sound is coming out!

Please double-check your right channel is not muted in alsamixer, and try 2 channels test: 'speaker-test -c 2 -t wav'
