Driver issues on new laptop

I first want to clarify I am not 100% sure my problems are drivers related, but I can't think of any other thing.

I' ve been two years using archlinux on my old laptop, now I got a new one and I am trying to migrate, I successfully cloned the disk, but when using this new system I am getting some weird issues.

I have two main issues:
  - I have no audio.
  - Wifi sometimes slows down (searching on browser is slow)
  - Some  media (F) keys don't work. I was using this to map the Fkeys.

Re: Driver issues on new laptop

All of these can deviate wildly depending on what your actual HW is on the new system and you didn't give any information on any of that.

We don't like shopping list threads, I suggest you make distinct topics for each distinct topic with context relevant information. A good place to generally start is the full output of

sudo journalctl -b

I'll pick the audio issue as it's your first bullet point, make new threads for the other ones, include journalctl -b in all of them. What's your output for

sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/*
sudo dmesg | grep -E 'snd|sof'
aplay -lL
systemctl --user status pipewire{,-pulse} wireplumber pulseaudio
pactl list cards

and post the outputs wrapped in code tags
pactl list sinks
