little silly question, does the sound ever worked before you update ?
Yes it did.
ok let's try this, we will try to use Older kernel
- Restart the PC and hold Escape during boot to access the GRUB menu (may also be accessed with Shift)
- Select "Advanced options for Zorin OS"
- Here, you can see the available kernels to boot into. Choose the older one (without recovery option)
I think im doing it wrong. I shut down, press either esc or shift and hold it. Some text runs on the screen, the loginscreen appears. But i cant find any kernel selector. Just some gear symbol on the bottom right with different zorin versions.
you need to press esc just when you see Lenovo logo, it's not easy I know but you will succeed
OK if you don't succeed we will try another way
give me the output of
awk -F\' '/submenu / {print "[1] "$2}
/^[[:space:]]+menuentry / {print " 1>"i++" "$2}' /boot/grub/grub.cfg
I finally managed and am talking to you from Zorin XXX.25 or something :). No sound unfortunately.
The terminal gave me this:
awk: cannot open "/boot/grub/grub.cfg" (Permission denied)
try with sudo
sudo awk -F\' '/submenu / {print "[1] "$2}
/^[[:space:]]+menuentry / {print " 1>"i++" "$2}' /boot/grub/grub.cfg
awk: cannot open "/boot/grub/grub.cfg[1]" (No such file or directory)
give me this please
ls -l /boot/grub/grub.cfg
grep -E "submenu '|menuentry '" /boot/grub/grub.cfg | cut -d"'" -f2

Zorin OS
Advanced options for Zorin OS
Zorin OS, with Linux 6.17.0-35-generic
Zorin OS, with Linux 6.17.0-35-generic (recovery mode)
Zorin OS, with Linux 6.17.0-29-generic
Zorin OS, with Linux 6.17.0-29-generic (recovery mode)
UEFI Firmware Settings
I chose the 6.17.0-29 generic. Not the one on recovery 
ok reboot and it will boot to the actual kernel -35, we will try other thing
uname -r

speaker-test -D plughw:0,0 -c2 -twav
Something happened. The sound bar in the bottom right disappeared, but i didnt catch at what step.
Pulse audio cant connect. Somehow the sound disappeared.
