Hi,
I've yet to get the sound working on my brand-new Dell XPS 15 (9520). The system seems not to recognize the sound card. I've installed sof-firmware to no avail. Any ideas on how to proceed? I've pasted in the output of lspci, dmesg, and aplay below. Thank you. [I also tried switching the audio off and on in the firmware UI and booting into the LTS kernel.]
$ sudo lspci -vvnn

Oh I almost forgot. It did recognize the sound card when I first got it, but I had no sound (even after unmuting the channels). Here's some output from then:
$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
ALSA lib conf.c:4098:(config_file_open) cannot access file /etc/alsa/conf.d/10-rate-lav.conf
ALSA lib conf.c:4018:(snd_config_hooks_call) function snd_config_hook_load returned error: No such file or directory
ALSA lib conf.c:4625:(snd_config_update_r) hooks failed, removing configuration
aplay: device_list:284: control open (0): No such file or directory
I also made note around this time that alsa-restore.service is failing due to missing `/etc/alsa/state-daemon.conf`.

Reinstalled the operating system, and now I have audio.
