Sounds like a driver issue. Maybe your laptop is not supported by Linux yet.
Comment 2 Francisco H 2024-09-28 06:50:36 UTC 
But to rule KDE out does it work on another DE like Gnome? Maybe try asking on an arch Linux forum, DE's like Gnome or KDE shouldn't cause audio devices to become inaccessible.
Comment 3 Francisco H 2024-09-28 07:03:17 UTC 
Is it using pipewire for audio? Or pulseaudio and alsa?
