Package: kernel-wedge Version: 2.99 Severity: serious Tags: a11y Justification: prevents blind people from using d-i
We have had (late, unfortunately) reports that HDA-based audio hardware does not get detected. Actually it does, but only after 60s of delay, which is way too long for the espeakup script. What happens is in snd_hdac_i915_init, which tries to load the i915 module, which is not included in d-i, and waits for 60s to get it loaded and bound to it. The delay was "only" 10s in 4.19.12, but apparently increased to 60s in 4.19.37. So I guess we should just ship the i915 module in d-i, either manually in the existing sound-modules*-di package, or in a separate package and make sound-modules*-di depend on it. It's a big 3M module, but it would be shipped only in the gtk images anyway. It'd definitely be so much useful to have this change uploaded in time for 10.1.
