Know that sound works out of the box on Debian, Ubuntu and Mint.
The guide is for people running Arch
Packages
First, install these packages.
sudo pacman -S wireplumber pipewire pipewire-pulse pipewire-alsa alsa-utils alsa-tools alsa-firmware sof-firmware
Then run this if the /etc/pipewire folder doesn’t exists.
mkdir -v /etc/pipewire/
cp -r /usr/share/pipewire/* /etc/pipewire/
Now reboot !
Start pipewire and co
Then if you are on Artix Linux, you must start pipewire, then pipewire-pulse then wireplumber on each boot.
If you are using systemd, your package manager should have enabled the three services automatically.
You can check if the programs are running with this command :
ps x | grep -E "pipewire|wireplumber"
Go check if your sound works now ! If it doesn’t, check if your speakers appear in the Audio section of this command :
wpctl status
If they don’t, I don’t have any other tips for you. Try searching for “matebook huawei sound linux” in your favorite search engine. You will find good stuff like this
