[ADL-P] Missing topology for ES8336 Alder Lake P device (i5-1240P Huawei Matebook 14 2022)

[Jay-716]

Sorry for this seemingly duplicate issue.

Problem

tplg request firmware intel/sof-tplg/sof-adl-es83x6-dmic4ch-ssp0.tplg failed err: -2 at every boot.
Due to the missing tplg file, my speaker never work.

My Environment

OS: Arch Linux
Machine: Huawei Matebook 14 2022 (KLVF-XX M1010)
Kernel: 6.0.12-arch1-1
CPU: 12th Gen Intel i5-1240P (16) @ 4.400GHz
Soundcard: Intel Corporation Alder Lake PCH-P High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)
sof-firmware version: 2.2.3

Check Support for ES8336 on My Machine

I have read the github wiki and sof docs as well as github issues related to the es8336 issues.
I check the kernel(the archlinux official kernel) that I am currently using, and the commits which are related to es8336 and mentioned by the wiki are actually in there.
And the compiling configs mentioned in the wiki are the same as mentioned in the wiki.
alsa-info.sh also detects my audio device as /sys/bus/acpi/devices/ESSX8336:00
lsmod also shows that es8336 related modules are loaded.

Logs

alsa-info.txt

Here is the tplg loading section in the kernel log:

Cannot Find the tplg Required

And I check the files under /usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg-v2.2.3/ , and there is NOT a file named sof-adl-es83x6-dmic4ch-ssp0.tplg, only to find the similar tplg for apl.
In the tplgs file([es8336_topologies_main.tar.gz] provided in the wiki page, I cannot find this tplg too.

PS. I don't know exactly if this issue should be submit to thesofproject/sof or thesofproject/linux, so I submit it here.
And I owe this problem to the missing tplg file, which may be inappropriate or inaccurate because it is just my guess.
If further information is needed, please let me know. I will post them below.
Thanks for your viewing. :)

Thanks for reporting this issue, which is actually a problem on both SOF and linux sides. Gah.

You can try a temporary fix by backup up your files in intel/sof-tplg/ and then
cp sof-tgl-es8336-dmic4ch-ssp0.tplg sof-adl-es83x6-dmic4ch-ssp0.tplg

I'll submit a rename and add the missing topologies.

[Jay-716]

Thanks for your timely reply.
I then cp sof-tgl-es8336-dmic4ch-ssp0.tplg sof-adl-es83x6-dmic4ch-ssp0.tplg, and the sound work! But the volume is extremely tiny, though I set all the volume settings to 100%(and even higher).
I don't know if it's related to the sound server. I am currently using pipewire, wireplumber, pipewire-alsa now.
I try to change the volume in amixer, alsamixer, pavucontrol, wpctl, and the sound are still tiny.
I follow the instruction to enable the dynamic debug, and here is the full dmesg log.

If I sould modify the quirk? or if I sould use sof-logger to get the DSP traces? or if I should try pulseaudio?
My distro kernel seems does not have the trace support, so it may be a little bit inconvinent to do that because I have never tried to build a custom kernel, but I will have a try if the DSP traces are needed.
Sorry. :)

@yangxiaohua2009 can you comment on the 'low sound' issue reported by multiple people?

[yangxiaohua2009]

@Jay-716 Can you provide alsainfo/amixer when playing music? Thanks

[Jay-716]

Here is the output when playing video with mpv:

PS. I suddenly got infected with COVID-19, so my reply may not be timely. Sorry.

@yangxiaohua2009 Additional information is here:
pactl_list_sinks.txt
pactl_list_sink_inputs.txt

I think it may probably be a pipewire issue, but I cannot make sure.

[yangxiaohua2009]

Your Headphone is -48dB and your DAC is -60% vol, which makes your sound extremely low.
Set them back to 0dB and you can hear load sound.

Simple mixer control 'Headphone',0
  Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined
  Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
  Limits: Playback 0 - 3
  Mono:
  Front Left: Playback 0 [0%] [-48.00dB] [off]
  Front Right: Playback 0 [0%] [-48.00dB] [off]

Simple mixer control 'DAC',0
  Capabilities: pvolume
  Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
  Limits: Playback 0 - 192
  Mono:
  Front Left: Playback 115 [60%] [-38.50dB]
  Front Right: Playback 115 [60%] [-38.50dB]

I actually have a script help you doing that
4.zip

[Jay-716]

OMG, The sound works perfectly now!!!
This problem has confused me for a long time, so I am very grateful to you guys for your timely and enthusiastic help!
Given that the pr thesofproject/sof#6878 will solve the original missing topology issue, I shall close this issue after that pr is successfully merged.
Thanks. :)
