Bug Description

On 22 March, 2020 I ran the latest update as requested by the computer. After rebooting, as requested, I no longer have sound & the only sound output is "Dummy Output".
No sound card is detected but i have a Multimedia Audio Controller Intel Corp Device 9dc8(rev30) installed.

After running Ubuntu-bug in terminal I get:

Thank you Hui Wang for your help.

>Please add "options snd-hda-intel dmic_detect=0" in the
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf, then the legacy hda driver will work as
before.

I can confirm, this solved both the sound problem as well as suspend
problem.

Peace,

Phil
