I've been using Arch for several months on this laptop, and I cannot get the speakers to work. I use pipewire and my speakers seem to be listed as Intel Alder Lake PCH-P High Definition Audio. It's definitely listed in pavucontrol, and I've verified that the volume is turned all the way up in alsamixer, but no sound. My wireless usb headphones work just fine when it is plugged in, and when I run speaker-test there is still no audio, so I don't think it's an issue with pipewire. I also have sof-firmware installed. I've read similar forum posts about this specific audio card but nothing I've tried up to this point has worked.
Here's the output of some commands:
