Ubuntu 21.04 No sound on new Dell Inspiron 7700 AIO

I just purchased a new Dell Inspiron 7700 AIO computer with 11th gen i7 CPU. Installed Ubuntu 21.04 and it mostly works ok. However, I have no sound from the built-in speakers, and the sound settings panel shows "Dummy Output" as the only output choice.

I've currently attached a bluetooth sound output device and am successfully using it for sound output, but I'd prefer to use the AIO's built-in speakers.

Any ideas on what I can check?

Solution 1:

The fix was to add the following to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf and reboot...
