I think your dell has different wifi and I think audio. The wifi driver for the xps 9310 is iwlwifi. Here is some firmware info: https://support.killernetworking.com/knowledge-base/killer-ax1650-in-debian-ubuntu-16-04/ and here is some qubes specific info on your wifi driver: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/5615
I think the audio is different too, as the xps 9700 needs the 5.10 kernel to work, but the base-config patch above does enable CONFIG_SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE which I think you need too. To patch the kernel you must build it from source with qubes-builder https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/qubes-builder/. First configure it. Then change kernel to master branch in builer.conf. after the "make get-sources" is when you would patch with config-base in qubes-builder/qubes-src/linux-kernel. fedora 33 5.10 kernel supports much more devices and audio works in the upstream fedora on both the 9700 and 9310 dells. I'll see if I can get a patch into qubes the upstream kernel modules which fedora has added or at the minimum the SOF stuff in the patch. Then all our audio will just work with qubes.
