GMKtec K9 Core Ultra 125H

[jason-a-alexander]

Hello,

I have a GMKtec K9 with a Core Ultra 125H. I getting the dreaded "Topology file: intel/sof-ace-tplg/sof-mtl-rt711.tplg" which based on the reading other tickets means that it's not detection the sound card. I'm running the latest mainline kernel and have loaded the firmware via install.sh script. Running Ubuntu 24.04. Other than sound everything is working great.

I also ran alsa-info and it's here

And here are other things people have asked for in other tickets

I found this in another comment and this might be the issue but I am not sure. https://github.com/thesofproject/linux/issues/5071#issuecomment-2177824378

This tells us you have an HDaudio codec, not SoundWire. You need the patch from https://github.com/thesofproject/linux/pull/4982

Thanks, That is what I thought but some of the errors were different so I wanted to be sure. I don't know if I've ever patched a kernel before so I might just wait for 6.10.
