Hi,
I have been trying to set up a Minisforum HX90[1] with Debian stable
with backports. Most of the stuff works out of the box except sound,
bluetooth, and Wi-Fi. I'll focus on the sound card issue here and use a
new thread for the latter 2 items (which are related to the same
MediaTek module.)
I've enabled backports repo and installed the latest backport kernel.
It looks like the system can detect the device according to inxi output:
```
$ inxi -SMA
System:
Host: debian-hx90 Kernel: 5.16.0-0.bpo.4-amd64 arch: x86_64 bits: 64
Desktop: N/A Distro: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)
Machine:
Type: Desktop Mobo: N/A model: HX90 serial: <superuser required>
UEFI: American Megatrends LLC. v: 5.19 date: 10/11/2021
Audio:
Device-1: AMD Renoir Radeon High Definition Audio driver: snd_hda_intel
Device-2: AMD Raven/Raven2/FireFlight/Renoir Audio Processor driver: N/A
Device-3: AMD Family 17h HD Audio driver: snd_hda_intel
Device-4: C-Media Audio Adapter (Unitek Y-247A) type: USB
driver: cmedia_hs100b,snd-usb-audio,usbhid
Sound Server-1: ALSA v: k5.16.0-0.bpo.4-amd64 running: yes
Sound Server-2: PulseAudio v: 14.2 running: yes
Sound Server-3: PipeWire v: 0.3.19 running: yes
```
but note this line: "Device-2: AMD Raven/Raven2/FireFlight/Renoir Audio
Processor driver: N/A" which seems to suggest that the driver is not
available. I tried to list devices using "aplay -l" but got no sound
card available:
```
$ aplay -l
aplay: device_list:274: no soundcards found...
```
PulseAudio also reports only the dummy sink is available:
```
$ pactl list sinks
Sink #0
State: SUSPENDED
Name: auto_null
Description: Dummy Output
Driver: module-null-sink.c
Sample Specification: s16le 2ch 44100Hz
Channel Map: front-left,front-right

65536 / 100% / 0.00 dB
balance 0.00
Base Volume: 65536 / 100% / 0.00 dB
Monitor Source: auto_null.monitor
Latency: 0 usec, configured 0 usec
Flags: DECIBEL_VOLUME LATENCY SET_FORMATS
Properties:
device.description = "Dummy Output"
device.class = "abstract"
device.icon_name = "audio-card"
Formats:
pcm
```
I've googled around and tried to install some firmware including
"firmware-sof-signed" but it didn't help. The "lspci output" looks like:
```
$ sudo lspci -v

The "lsmod" output seems to show that everything is loaded, but it seems
the acp3x related modules are not in use:
```

I'm not sure what to do about this, and there isn't much result from
Googling that are related to Debian. Any suggestions are appreciated!
And if there's any more info needed I'd like to provide if that helps.
Thanks in advance.
