Hi all,
bought an HP ZBook Fury G8 with Ubuntu installed. From the very beginning, the sound jumps, doubles, breaks. From the installed audio devices I see Speaker - sof-hda-dsp and Digital Microfone - sof-hda-dsp. Under Windows, the Realtek and NVIDIA drivers are pulled up, and the sound is excellent. However, I need to work under Ubuntu. Does anyone know a solution?

Hi, @ivan_kuchuhurny so your laptop dual boots Ubuntu and Windows right?
Check to see if the "fast boot" feature is enabled in Windows 10. That's because fast boot is actually a hybrid suspend that does not fully shut down the system. This can prevent you from accessing resources when you boot Ubuntu after Windows 10.
You might consider learning how to (re)install both operating systems because this is a fairly easy task that you do not need to take it somewhere to have it done.

Hi @CharlieItuah1, thank you for the answer, but my laptop has only Ubuntu operating system. I started Windows from a removable drive to check the audio devices, and when Windows pulled up the correct drivers, the sound was great. But under Ubuntu I can't find any drivers for my laptop, so the sound is as I described: broken, interrupted, and doubled.
