Hi there,

I have a weird problem on my Lenovo P14s laptop. Before I applied a world upgrade (based on August 22 state portage), the internal speaker of the laptop worked fine, but now its all silent, although all mixer levels are 100% and no channel is muted.

Observed facts:
* Connecting a HDMI tv-set produces sound over the tv-set properly
* Booting Win10: Internal speakers working fine --> no hw issue
* Connecting headphone via audio jack under linux - no sound.
* Reverting to backup makes sound work again --> config/sw problem introduced by update
* In plasma's system settings/audio tray, the Speaker output device is not shown -- only 3xHDMI (The analog speaker seems to have gone)

The kernel is exactly the same as before the upgrade, didn't recompile it (sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-5.12.0) --> no kernel issue

Relevant packet changes:
sys-kernel/linux-firmware-20210511 -> sys-kernel/linux-firmware-20210716 dev-python/pyalsa-1.1.6-r1 = dev-python/pyalsa-1.1.6-r1 Media-libs/alsa-lib-1.2.3.2-r1 -> media-libs/alsa-lib-1.2.4 Media-libs/alsa-topology-conf-1.2.3 -> media-libs/alsa-topology-conf-1.2.4 Media-libs/alsa-ucm-conf-1.2.3 -> media-libs/alsa-ucm-conf-1.2.4 Media-plugins/alsa-plugins-1.2.2 = media-plugins/alsa-plugins-1.2.2 Media-sound/alsa-tools-1.2.2-r1 = media-sound/alsa-tools-1.2.2-r1 Media-sound/alsa-utils-1.2.3 -> media-sound/alsa-utils-1.2.4 Media-libs/pulseaudio-qt-1.2 = media-libs/pulseaudio-qt-1.2 Media-plugins/gst-plugins-pulse-1.16.3 = media-plugins/gst-plugins- pulse-1.16.3
Media-sound/pulseaudio-13.0-r1 = media-sound/pulseaudio-13.0-r1 Kde-plasma/plasma-meta-5.20.5 -> 5.21.5 (including all dependencies)


I tried downgrading linux-firmware to the old version from the backup -- did not help.
I tried logging in from a completely fresh account to exclude any bad config in the local home directory -> no success.

Any further ideas?

Thanks, Alex
