@gannon1 OK, had some small struggles with grub on efi, but yes, once I made a completely new kernel version with just this patch then it did work and does survive reboots and source changes, etc. So at least until a new kernel comes out I am set :)
Is there anything I can do to help with the speaker investigation? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1851518 Title: [950SBE/951SBE, Realtek ALC298, Speaker, Internal] No sound on internal speakers, very very quiet on headphones Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I've been googling this issue for 10's of hours and tried many things. Relase of Ubuntu: 19.10 Expected outcome: Music plays on the internal speakers and headphones. Actual outcome: I can barely hear audio using headphones with volume turned up to 150%. Absolutely nothing comes out of the speakers. (The speakers sound great under Windows 10.)
