Is that the Direkt-Tek DTLAPC14-1 laptop you wrote about originally? It has a lot of problems reported online. I would question whether Direkt-Tek are using good quality components. You've only had it for about 3 months, right? You should try to demand a refund.

I have never even heard of that happening in a very long time... Your hardware, must be fairly new and/or arch had some stupid update that screwed things up. Dunno which, or both... but yeah. I thought those errors never happened anymore since the early 2000s. ;)

Parabola is good too, personally, anything is better than a ubuntu non-free derivative. I don't recommend using any non-free software directly. I wonder if he plans to try this, of course I also wonder how new is hardware is. ;)

That's very good news, so there's no hardware failure. Next, you should try Parabola, the libre version of Arch: https://www.parabola.nu/ I used Parabola for several years with very good success. It has bleeding edge software just like Arch. You might find that sound and wifi work on

Switching to Arch isn't a solution at all. You may need to purchase some freedom-respecting hardware (such as ath9k-htc USB WLAN card) to retain your freedom.

You should consider the fact that your hardware need proprietary software in order to works, so the only viable way would be be to change your hardware.
