Title:
  ASUS Zenbook S14 UX5406SA (Lunar Lake): no internal audio –
  cs42l43/cs35l56 report missing power supplies (“using dummy
  regulator”) on Ubuntu 25.10 beta (kernel 6.17)

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Summary
  On an ASUS Zenbook S14 UX5406SA (Lunar Lake) running Ubuntu 25.10 beta, the internal speakers/mic do not work. SOF topology for this model is present (l23), firmware packages are current, but the cs42l43 codec and cs35l56 amplifiers fail to initialize due to missing power supplies (kernel falls back to “dummy regulator”). Likely a kernel/platform (ACPI/regulator mapping) issue rather than SOF firmware.

  System

  Device: ASUS Zenbook S14 UX5406SA (Lunar Lake)

  Ubuntu: 25.10 beta (Questing)

  Kernel: 6.17.0-4-generic (uname -a: Linux ubuntu 6.17.0-4-generic

  What I expected
  With current firmware-sof-signed and the correct l23 topology present, the codec/amps should get proper regulator supplies via ACPI/platform definitions and initialize, providing working internal speakers/mic.

  What I get
  Only HDMI/DP sinks appear; internal speakers/mic are non-functional (PipeWire shows “Dummy Output”/no sinks). The drivers explicitly warn about missing supplies and fail to attach properly on SoundWire.

  Why I believe this is a kernel/platform issue

  SOF firmware and topology files are present and up-to-date.

  Errors indicate missing regulator supplies (VDD_P, VDD_A, VDD_IO,
  etc.) for cs42l43/cs35l56, which are normally provided via
  ACPI/regulator mappings in the platform layer.

  Fedora reportedly has this model working already; likely their kernel
  carries upstream/backported fixes for Lunar Lake + cs42l43/cs35l56
  regulator/ACPI integration.

  Request
  Please review and pull/backport the upstream fixes that define the required regulators/mappings for ASUS UX5406SA (Lunar Lake) using cs42l43 + cs35l56 on SoundWire. If additional UCM tweaks are needed for the l23 variant, please advise.
