[solved] samsung chromebook 3 audio not working

Hey, so I just got a Samsung Chromebook,  and installed Arch on it. It works great except for the fact that there is no audio anywhere, in or out.

Some command outputs:

$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: chtrt5650 [chtrt5650], device 0: Audio (*) []
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: chtrt5650 [chtrt5650], device 1: Deep-Buffer Audio (*) []
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]

$ aplay -L

$ speaker-test -c2

speaker-test 1.2.5

Playback device is default
Stream parameters are 48000hz, S16_LE, 2 channels
Using 16 octaves of pink noise
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1035:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
Playback open error: -2,No such file or directory

I have the sof-firmware package installed. I really don't know what else to do and help would be extremely appreciated.

I found a alsaucm command, that fixed it.

alsaucm -c chtrt5650 set _verb HiFi set _enadev Speakers
