HP envy x360 amd ryzen sound setup

I am new here. I just bought new laptop , HP Envy x360 13-ar0022nn AMD Ryzen 5 3500U ,with 8 /gb RAM.

Only problem , I have Bang & Olufsen, quad speakers, but sound comming only from bottom, so 2 speakers..

Is it possible to fix that ?

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS x86_64 and Kernel: 5.4.0-26-generic

Solution 1:

Here is my settings on the same computer (model slightly different, but the same processor, also envy x360 13).

Open terminal, then type the following:

sudo apt-get install alsa-tools-gui

After installation finished, do the following:

sudo hdajackretask

You will enter the graphical interface of Jack Retasking for HDA Intel sound cards. It works the same even if we are using AMD processors.

Check the box: show unconnected

Find the 0x14 pin, check the override button, and set it with the option "Internal speaker"

Also find the 0x17 pin, check the override button, and set it with the option "Internal speaker (Back)"

Then click the button Install boot override

Reboot to see changes.

It should work, however, the volume would seem bugged, but it is in the settings menu.

In the AnalogSurround 4.0 Output, move the Fade slider to the right until you think the volume goes with how you feel.

There is a reset bug (unconfirmed), but is surely out of the "enable front audio thing"
