A friend of mine has a Carbon 7th-gen and did the following update this morning:

After a reboot, his sound output stopped working as well as the microphone input. The change from libasouns@1.1.3-5ubuntu0.2 to libasound@1.1.3-5ubuntu0.4 seems, given the diff, to be the most likely root cause for this. In the kernel messages we can see the following:

I'm currently posting this for him as after some attempts to downgrade there is a problem with booting altogether. Is someone able to confirm that this change likely caused this and possibly what we can do to fix it / what other information we'd need to provide? Thanks!
