I have the same audio card [8086:9d71] on Lenovo Yoga C930. Audio was working on Focal with 5.4 kernel with snd_hda_intel driver, but the microphone was not. I managed to get it working by following this guide:

The biggest pain point for me is that Ubuntu kernels have CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_SKYLAKE_HDAUDIO_CODEC disabled.
So I installed `5.11.0-25-generic` HWE kernel sources, turned on that option, and rebuilt the kernel from sources. However, it is tedious to to that every time a kernel update is released.

Is it possible to have that option turned on in Ubuntu kernel builds?

Please let me know if I can help with testing.
