Hello I cannot get audio.
It was not showing in the live iso, but after re-booting into the iso it did work.
After install it worked, but then on subsequent boots did not.
Sometime the toggle controls worked, but still no sound.
After adding:
snd_hda_intel.dmic_detect=0
to grub and updating grub I had working sound! 
On subsequent boots it did not have sound. 
I updated grub again but still no sound.
