>You might try disabling SME (secure memory encryption) in the BIOS, >but in theory, this should not make any difference. I could not find SME in the bios. I disabled GMI enryption control, xGMI encryption control and CC6 memory region encryption, in case they were other names for the same thing. No difference. >From google, quoting a query to AMD, my processor, a 2700X does not support SME. https://github.com/AMDESE/AMDSEV/issues/1 I feel like this is a rabbit hole I am going down... >From 4.17.3 I still have: [ 12.125873] snd_hda_intel 0000:09:00.1: Handle vga_switcheroo audio client [ 12.126197] snd_hda_intel 0000:09:00.1: SME is active, device will require DMA bounce buffers [ 12.126427] snd_hda_intel 0000:09:00.1: SME is active, device will require DMA bounce buffers [ 12.126788] snd_hda_intel 0000:0b:00.3: SME is active, device will require DMA bounce buffers [ 12.127027] snd_hda_intel 0000:0b:00.3: SME is active, device will require DMA bounce buffers and it still does not pick up the sound hardware. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
