I was really excited to try Solus on my new HP laptop, but it turns out that I won't be using it as it's impossible to use audio without the sof-firmware package that support Intel audio modules. It has been requested, but seems to be super early stages (no developer yet assigned): https://dev.getsol.us/T9501. Too bad. I'll come back and check this out in a couple of months maybe. Unless there's a way to speed things up
sof-firmware package not available

Hello, is there any advancement on that ?
My laptop requires SOF to play sound.
I am open to help if needed.
Manually install it, my laptop's mic didn't work (actually the speakers stopped working this week too and the sound card disappeared entirely from the sound settings). Clone this repositor:y: https://github.com/thesofproject/sof-bin
cd sof-bin
sudo ./install.sh v1.7.x/v1.7
Reboot and you're done!
This worked, thanks a lot ! I will uninstall them and use sof from Solus's repo once available.
