# Thinkpad X1 Carbon Fix Sound Card

Here is a simple way to fix the sound in Thinkpag X1 Carbon Gen 7, I’ve tested it in Void Linux and Arch Linux and works well

sudo vim /etc/default/grub

Find GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT, add snd_hda_intel.dmic_detect=0 to the end at the line like

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="loglevel=3 snd_hda_intel.dmic_detect=0"

Then update grub

sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Reboot the system.

sudo reboot
