HP x360 spectre 13-aw2619nz No sound in internal speaker

Hello,
I would like to debug a sound problem in the computer.

Hardware:
HP x360 spectre 13-aw2619nz (intel 11th generation tiger Lake)

Software:
Ubuntu studio
$ cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 21.10"
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION_ID="21.10"
VERSION="21.10 (Impish Indri)"
VERSION_CODENAME=impish
Kernel 5.13.0-23-lowlatency

My ALSA config: http://alsa-project.org/db/?f=e5348dd573e2feb8c6263ef9c5013ebdd7e8caeb

Problem with audio output:
all the audio peripheral work well (jack, bt audio..) but the internal speaker is unavailable).

I'm new on linux platform, I don't know what i need to do.
I have see some post about this :
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=212465
#3195
solution appear as a pin configuration .
Can you help me with a procedure for dumies how can i fix this ?
no i need a 5.15 kernel?, a 1.2.5 alsa driver or just change in a config file?

I don't know how to build a kernel or how to build a package , I have tried some mods but at the end i reinstall completely my Os because i broke it with different test.......

Thanks

I checked that kernel 5.13 does contain the support for HP x360 devices, but there's a mistake: the following diff should be applied

diff --git a/sound/soc/intel/boards/sof_sdw.c b/sound/soc/intel/boards/sof_sdw.c

        },
        /* TigerLake-SDCA devices */
        {

from the code, I see this:

SOF_RT711_JD_SRC_JD1 = 1, -> BIT(0)
#define SOF_SDW_TGL_HDMI		BIT(3)
#define SOF_SDW_PCH_DMIC		BIT(4)

In binary that's 11001 or 0x19.

If you are not familiar with compilation of the kernel, you should be able to set the following quirk in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf. You should also see a log in the 'dmesg' log, you should see something like:
quirk realtek,jack-detect-source 1

options snd_soc_sof_sdw quirk=0x19
options snd_soc_sof_sdw dyndbg=+p

(edit: use 0x19, I confused existing solution and desired fix)

Thanks: I have edit as root the alsa.base.conf, and reboot the laptop.
Now the speaker is by default active on alsamixer but still no still no sond come out.

@MyrkoF

@MyrkoF can you open a terminal and type

speaker-test -Dhw:0,2 -c2 -r48000

also provide the updated results of 'alsa-info' and 'dmesg' log. Thanks!

the speakeer-test command work and send sound but nothing on the speaker.

here is the alsa-info

http://alsa-project.org/db/?f=76c6b4b40db8b5b36c64dabafb258828ef5c812b

likely missing mixers or bad UCM, can you try this with this file
hp360x.state.txt

alsactl --file ~/hp360x.state.txt restore

note that for 5.15+ the quirk format was changed, the following value is needed:

options snd_soc_sof_sdw quirk=0x61

likely missing mixers or bad UCM, can you try this with this file hp360x.state.txt
alsactl --file ~/hp360x.state.txt restore

the destination file is not existing on /usr/share/alsa/ucm2/sof-soundwire/
here is the command executed

PS thanks to help me i really apreciate, (même si je comprend pas ce que je fais hehe)

PS alsa-lib utils.c:335:(uc_mgr_config_load) could not open configuration file /usr/share/alsa/ucm2//sof-soundwire/dmic.conf

why the they is double // in ucm2//sof-sound ?

Can you try this command instead? if this fails you have a bad alsa-ucm-conf installed.

alsaucm -c sof-soundwire set _verb HiFi set _enadev Speaker

sorry the file is present:

myrko@x360-studio:/usr/share/alsa/ucm2/sof-soundwire$ ls

HiFi.conf rt1316-1.conf rt700.conf rt715.conf
rt1308-1.conf rt1316-2.conf rt711.conf rt715-sdca.conf

maybe the broblem come from the double // in the path ??

i can maybe remplace the file soft-soundwire.conf on my computer with this one :
https://github.com/alsa-project/alsa-ucm-conf/blob/master/ucm2/sof-soundwire/sof-soundwire.conf ?

it's probably better to archive your /usr/share/alsa/ucm and ucm2, and replace it with the git master. You can get a zip file here: https://github.com/alsa-project/alsa-ucm-conf (green 'code' button, pull down and use 'Download Zip'

I have backuped the ucm and ucm2 folders and remplaced with the https://github.com/alsa-project/alsa-ucm-conf folders.
I have rebooted the computer no change
I have launch the previous command here: the output

myrko@x360-studio:~/Bureau$ alsaucm -c sof-soundwire set _verb HiFi set _enadev Speaker

still no diference ( sound work with bt and 3.5 jack headset but nothing with the internal speaker

(edit; just to say it is a fresh install of ubuntu studio with last updates, juste somes program addes (virtualbox, filezilla, mixx nqq, wine, nextcloud) i have done any changes on the config files . )

@MyrkoF

@MyrkoF Likely a problem with Ubuntu not updating their packages. I just tried on Fedora 34 and things work fine on the same type of devices (HP x360)

what kind of package do i need to upgrade?
you suggest to swich on fedora distribution ?
on ubuntu studio the only problems i have is ;
the sound
auto rotation of the screen in tablet mode
latency on the keyboard at startup (solved with i8042 various parameters tested on kernel startup)
I'm at 99% working with this config

(edit; the think is the Dell XPS13 developper edition come with ubuntu 20 and all work out of the box, and the machine has the same architecture i7 11th gen, etc..)

@jason77-wang

I am not in a position to recommend a distribution, I need to be friends with everyone.

you typically need an update of alsa-lib, alsa-utils and alsa-ucm-conf. The package names may vary.

For Ubuntu the go-to contact is @jason77-wang.

@plbossart

@plbossart
i have try the live CD of fedora 35 with plasma the sound come out of the box , (just to swich the headset to speaker in the mixer.

So I have did many test:

./configure , make and make install the alsa-lib 1.2.5.1, alsa-plugins alsa-utils alsa-firmware found on the alsa project directories. Not sucess, error on the make process and after unable to lauche alsamixer.

after sucess to install alsa-lib 1.2.5.1 without error I have backuped the alsa.conf, ucm.conf and sof-soundwire.conf from the fedora live cd and past into my ubuntu system
still nothing work and unable to lauche alsamixer.

I did a backup of my system before with timeshift ans revert my install with timeshift

@jason77-wang

Hello, if you see the feed of this issue 3300, can i ask you how to make the speaker work in a ubuntu studio ?

thanks

@plbossart

@jason77-wang

Solved by workaround
Hello, SO I decide to install Fedora 35 with plasma desktop, because i was unable to understand what to do on ubuntu to solve the problem. (i'm not able today to compile a kernek with the last alsa drivers for my computer..)
For informations: everything work out of the box.
on the last updates on day 10. dec. 2021 everything is ok with alsa 1.2.5.1-4.fc36

!! do not make a full dnf upgrade because the new version of alsa 1.2.6.x create the same problem i had on ubuntu (speaker not available)

so use sudo dnf upgrade --exclude=alsa*

I'll close since it's not an SOF bug but a dowstream issue with alsa/UCM.
