Does it help to load the kernel modules that you had with 6.12 (or 6.8?)? Otherwise bisection is probably the most effective way to locate the culprit. To narrow down the test range (and thus reduce the number of compilations that you have to do), please start with the kernel images available on https://snapshot.debian.org/package/linux/. In the first step where you know that 6.12 is good and 7.0 is bad, pick a kernel somewhat in the middle of that range (e.g. something based on 6.16.y) and test that. Depending on if sound works there for you continue either on the range 6.12..6.16 or 6.16..7.0 until you found a pair of consecutive images where the older works and the newer doesn't. After that we most likely ask you for a procedure like the one that Salvatore described in https://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2026/03/msg00303.html, but unless you want to sharpen your kernel skills and explore the problem of your own, please first report back the result of the binary package bisection. If something is unclear, don't hesitate to ask. Either here or in the #debian-kernel irc channel. Best regards Uwe
