I know there are many similar posts, but I couldn’t find any answers.
Im in Fedora workstation on a MSI thin15 BU12C and my build-in speakers do (I do not know since when) do not produce any sound any more. I did check for muted devices, couldn’t find any, seems like some sort of driver problem (?). I tried to have Chatgpt helping me, didnt really work. If it helps, I created an alsa-info-file (looks like I cant upload a textfile here; here is the file: alsa-info.txt.FNqBeSDHng ). I’d love to give more info, but as I’m pretty lost here, you will have to ask me for specific things.
Thanks in advance
!!ALSA/HDA dmesg

EMPTY!
no dmesg output. pls rerun with sudo
Does audio work when you boot the previous kernel?

Good question. And, if it doesn’t, you can always try booting a live system from USB and seeing if that works.
I created a new file, this has dmesg-ouptput:

I’ve tried both fedora 42 and an old fedora 41 USB, both didn’t work
