Hello
1. Audio

What does this mean?

I didn't found any soundcard on my device
root@rockpi5:~# inxi -A
Audio:
   Message: No device data found.
   API: ALSA v: k6.10.0-0.rc2.20240607git8a92980606e3.28.fc41.aarch64
     status: kernel-api
   Server-1: PipeWire v: 1.1.82 status: active

Looking at the git log it looks like the mappings for it through to
the es8316 codec.

There could be other userspace pieces needed, like a UCM profile or
something. TBH I have not looked at audio at all. HDMI/DP audio is
while away.

It likely needs a DT fix, it's on my list to look at it but I've not
had a chance to get to it yet.

And it won't be usable for display output until the HDMI driver lands,
maybe they've not enabled the 3D unit because of that. I will look but
I have some other priorities to deal with first.

Running the following gives me sound via a headset:

alsaucm -c rk3588-es8316 reset reload set _verb HiFi list _devices set
_enadev Headphones set _enadev Headset
aplay  /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Left.wav

Can you provide more details of your configuration? Desktop etc.

I suspect there's a ucm profile missing to do this automatically. I'll
add it to my (very long) todo list to look at some point.

This is working for me with the Fedora 6.10-rc4 build.

Didn't work for me, do I have to update 
initramfs-6.10.0-0.rc4.20240618git14d7c92f8df9.39.fc41.aarch64.img
