HP ENVY X360 - 13-ar0016nn Sound Issue

  • I have recently installed Fedora 39 Workstation, with kernel version 6.5.6-300.fc39.x86_64.

  • It works pretty well and looks nice, however I have an issue with the sound. The sound works, however only the front speakers even though, to my knowledge this laptop has 4 speakers and a subwoofer.

  • Here is the information that might be relevant:

04:00.6 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Family 17h/19h HD Audio Controller
	DeviceName: HD Audio Controller
	Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 85de
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 125, IOMMU group 12
	Memory at fccc0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=32K]
	Capabilities: <access denied>
	Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel
	Kernel modules: snd_hda_intel
  • This is how the system sees the device, and the kernel module it is using.
  1. Do you have any experience with this?
  2. Have you figured out a different module that would work?
