Package: cdimage.debian.org Severity: important Tags: a11y Testing the gnome live image for the 12.3 release...
Running d-i from that image complained early on about missing Intel SOF firmware. Later on, the same image finds and loads intel wifi firmware just fine. Checking on the image, all the firmware debs are sym-linked in /firmware just fine but we don't have the extra metadata file (Contents file and dep11 stuff). Early on, AFAICS this means that the sof firmware isn't detected and loaded. Indeed, checking a d-i speech installation from this image, I don't get audio. Argh. Checking the same machine (Thinkpad T14s) with the amd64 netinst, it successfully loads firmware and starts the speech installer.
