Description Ilya Bizyaev 2020-12-25 11:30:01 UTC

After an update to sof-firmware 1.6 from multimedia:libs, I got the following errors in my dmesg:
```
sof-audio-pci 0000:00:1f.3: DSP detected with PCI class/subclass/prog-if info 0x040100
sof-audio-pci 0000:00:1f.3: Digital mics found on Skylake+ platform, using SOF driver

```

The file in questions exists in /lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg-v1.5, but /lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg was linked to /lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg-v1.6.

As a workaround, I did:
$ sudo rm /lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg
$ sudo ln -s /lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg-v1.5 /lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg

— which got me sound and microphone back.

A known issue.  As 1.6-rc3 was a short-lived package and basically only for TW, I keep it as is.  It can be fixed by simply uninstalling and reinstalling the new package.
