That is odd. If its an option, you might consider a fresh install of 22.04 and then just the few steps. Its possible something else was changed or didn't reset fully as expected, but I know a full reload can be a ton of work and disruption. I don't know which script version they had in the blog, but attached is the very final one that I am using now that works. If you go the qemu route, I will warn you ahead of time it is not that simple even after you get the custom compile done because you have to catch the right sub part of the flow and it never seemed to be a single verb, only a combination in sequence that worked. i.e. even if you record all the verbs that make it work in windows then just playing them all back doesn't work because windows leaves it in an off condition and turns back on when needed. Anyway, it took a lot of trials to find a subset that worked consistently. Yes, mine has an hdmi, but just the intel graphics. Perhaps that could be involved, but I don't have access to the 15" laptop to try. Here is my output from pacmd list-cards. If there is any other output that would help you then let me know...
