do you think that is worth a try. That lenovo is 2 years older, and seems to be for ALC287, which is the wrong codec. I mean I am willing to try…
I think you’ve meant to quote something different 
weird…should work automatically 
Give me screenshot of Tools → Catia, it’s a modular connections of available inputs / outputs, don’t get scared 
Well anything is worth trying if it doesn’t work i guess.

Looking good to me…i don’t know.
My guess:
Linux doesn’t have drivers available yet- Maybe speakers are not physically connected inside of laptop somehow
2nd is unlikely, but…you know s**t happens during assembly, transportation or whatnot
Keep searching!

btw, forget about it…headphones jack works, therefore it must be something speaker specific.
It’s the same chip for both…

Have you tried alsa-tools-gui and use hdajackretask to set different pins?
Same as Cadence → Catia which looks good, so it doesn’t make sense
and alsa-tools-gui is a drivers for old professional audiocards (Echo, RME, EMI) specific GUI, won’t help here either.
ALC3306
It seems like a kernel issue. The bug tracker for the kernel is at https://bugzilla.kernel.org
(c) https://github.com/alsa-project/alsa-lib/issues/139#issuecomment-851034031
P.S. Yeah looks like it’s a known Kernel issue then…@ricklinux link is better 
Personally i think it’s related to the new amplifier chips listed as acp6x and acp3x
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2058087#p2058087
So…Until it’s patched in something like 6.1 or later, looks like the only way is to patch & compile Kernel
What i don’t get is why headphones work…different audio chips for speakers / headphones?
This laptop is made by some mad scientist or something?!

Are you able to change the card it uses to card 2
no, I don’t even know what pins are… 
I don’t even understand what entry is what. In my first post, it seems that the main device for the speaker is Device 4.
Device-4: AMD Family 17h/19h HD Audio driver: snd_hda_intel
edit: under pulse audio volume control for speakers it gives me that option or headphones.
Looks like I have also a Rembrandt Radeon HD audio controller and Navi 21/23 HDMI/DP Audio, my guess is one is for the audio jack.
Thats the thing. It is possible that this will never get fixed or it might, who knows. I really like this laptop, it’s a beast. But for the time being, I have either the option to use headphones or other external speakers until there is a fix, try one of those kernel patches, or I have until tomorrow to bring it back.
And the question is whether I can help filling a kernel bug at this point.
Sound issues are really hard. There is so much info…
