Hey y'all,
Loving Garuda so far, save for one thing. I've installed as a dual-boot next to Windows 10 on an HP Pavillion 15 laptop and in linux, I have no sound. This was an issue with Ubuntu 21 as well, it seems any linux distro I install is not seeing my sound card.
So, I came to you for help! I've followed a few different sound issue threads but was not able to get this figured out yet. I'm brand new to Garuda, and only had minor prior experience with Ubuntu when I used it over 5 years ago for gaming and some web browsing.
Where I'm at:
The 'muted' sound icon on taskbar, doesn't matter if I used keys to vol+/vol- or mute, this never changes. There is no dialog that pops up showing volume changes either when I'm using the keyboard shortcuts (fn + f8 for example is vol+ on my laptop). When I click configure audo devices to open the sound settings, there's just a blank page where I imagine my sound card should be.
What can I do to get some help here, I'm hoping to learn!

Writing a well formatted post in the forum (Discource powered) is important, if you want readers to easily read and understand.
It's especially important for terminal output.
Here is a brief tutorial.

as text! Even if you personally think it is unnecessary.

If I write a suggestion or a solution, you will have to read it anyway.
Since reading is not avoidable, why don’t you start reading Garuda wiki for ways to solve your basic problems and how to post a request ?

There is another (solved) thread with the same laptop here:
After some more digging I actually found a solution to my issue in an askubuntu forum answer. The issue as was pointed out by @petsam , was that the incorrect audio driver was loaded.
The way to solve it for me was to perform the following:
sudo nvim /etc/default/grub

to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash snd_hda_intel.dmic_detect=0 ..."
