Just to make it clear #27 is done without any modifications on top of the original post, that is:
"alsa-ucm-conf/focal-updates,focal-updates,now 1.2.2-1ubuntu0.1 all"
was already installed (with and without dmic_detect=0).
Both the freezing and the second attempts I mentioned in #27 are done withut dmic_detect=0.
