Public bug reported: My output sound device "Lenovo Family 17h" worked well in Ubuntu 20.04. device: IdeaPad-5-14ARE05 Since shortly it stopped working and only showed: "System => Sound => Output Device" - "Dummy Output". Checked it with different kernels and it is not kernel related problem since upgrade of libasound, so we set back to older version
