I don't know what exact information you could require for this. ------- I have just reproduced the problem by upgrading back to 4.15.0-**58** from 4.15.0-**55**. Sound not working again. Plus, by switching to an older kernel proves sound is functional. ------- Hardware: laptop Dell HG6D142: [direct link to product page][1] ---------- $ lsb_release -rd Description: Linux Mint 19.2 Tina Release: 19.2 ----------- expectation: sound working ------- happened: sound does not work at all, neither with Intel GPU, nor Nvidia GPU online, tried all I could mentioned above -------- I attach a simple diff between 55 and 58 loaded. ------- Thank you!
