snd_hda_intel issue with a hp laptop

I've using Arch for 3 years, and the last month i change to Windows to update my laptop BIOS firmware; when i come back to linux i have a issue with the audio card, nothing works, the audio jack don't work and the system don't detect the audio card. I see the dmesg and i have the error of:

[    7.217639] snd_hda_intel 0000:17:00.6: no codecs found!

I thought that's a issue of the newest kernel, so i install Debian and don't work, i tried Gentoo and the same, so i think its a issue of my bios, but HP blocked the BIOS downgrade. I tried to use modprobe, rmmod, kmod, nothing works, linux only detect my audio card when i shutdown the entire system, leave from some hours, and power on, that's the only way to make audio card works.

My laptop specs are:
Model: HP 14-fq1012la
BIOS Version: F.35
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5500u
Audio Card: Realtek ALC, or Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Family 17h/19h HD Audio Controller
Kernels tested: 6.1.0, 6.1.9, 6.12.9, 6.13.4

Re: snd_hda_intel issue with a hp laptop

If you've been in Windows you need to ensure you've disabled windows fast boot otherwise the HW is in an undefined state: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dual_b … ibernation

After having ensured to have done that, if you still have the issue after a reboot, try a

sudo alsactl init

and reboot again.
