Hi,
After updating to the image with kernel 7.2.11-rakuos.2.v3.fc44.x86_64, there is no audio at all on my Dell XPS 14. Rolling back to the previous image (kernel 7.2.9-rakuos.1.v3.fc44.x86_64) restores audio with no other changes.
System
- RakuOS edition: niri V3
- Hardware: Dell XPS 14 DA14260 (Intel Panther Lake), audio subsystem 1028:0db9
- Working kernel: 7.2.9-rakuos.1.v3.fc44.x86_64
- Broken kernel: 7.2.11-rakuos.2.v3.fc44.x86_64
- Image info:

Steps to reproduce
1. Update to the image with kernel 7.2.11
2. Reboot
3. No audio devices available (speakers)
Expected: Audio devices available and working, as on 7.2.9.
Actual: No sound card registered. Only a dummy device shows, or it tries to connect to network speakers.
Workaround: `sudo bootc rollback` to the image with 7.2.9.
Possibly related
Fedora bug 2531233 describes the same symptom on this model, with CS35L57 amplifiers failing to probe ("Failed to get spk-id-gpios", error -16): https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2531233
In my case 7.2.9 still works, so the change may have come in between that one and 7.2.11.
I'm happy to test a fixed kernel or provide more logs. I'm not a Linux expert so may need a bit of help, but happy to help where I can.
