I'd been trying Linux on and off over the last 5 years ago with a spare
Z20t I have and thought I'd put in some recent findings that might help
with this issue.

Z20t-B and z20t-C models seem affected the same, with Ubuntu and Arch
based installs - also tried various kernels from 5 through to 6.7.


An interesting finding with one of my spare Z20's, is that when I wiped and 
decided to try Windows again, (tested with Win8, 10, and 11), this same 
situation is reproducable:
- Power on, Speakers produce sound
- Put to sleep
- Wake from sleep, Speakers don't produce sound


I found that there's an issue with the latest drivers from Toshiba/Dynabook, 
even for Windows:

1. Conexant Audio Driver
> Posted Date: 2018-05-21 | Version: 8.66.47.56

2. Conexant Audio Driver
> Posted Date: 2017-12-19 | Version: 8.66.47.50 | Size: 83.52M

The driver from 2018 has the 'sleep-wake speaker not working' issue. But
installing the 2017 version works totally fine.


Hopefully this may provide some insight on this issue.
