Hi all,

I'm writing to ask whether the small fixup-table change below can be 
picked up for mainline. It's already in CachyOS's downstream tree since 
2026-03-06 and is reported to restore speaker audio on an
entire family of recent ASUS ROG Strix laptops, including mine.

The relevant commit is by Eric Naim <dnaim@cachyos.org>:

   CachyOS commit 20313d767be2e5abdb88295b7c724634e1937a4f
   "ALSA: hda/realtek: Use ALC287_FIXUP_TXNW2781_I2C for ASUS Strix Gxx5"
https://github.com/CachyOS/linux/commit/20313d767be2e5abdb88295b7c724634e1937a4f

The change is a six-line edit to sound/hda/codecs/realtek/alc269.c: the 
affected SSIDs are currently mapped to ALC287_FIXUP_TAS2781_I2C but 
actually need ALC287_FIXUP_TXNW2781_I2C. The wrong quirk leaves the I²C 
interrupt config inconsistent with the ACPI TXNW2781 entry, so 
serial-multi-instantiate fails to resolve IRQ index 0 for each of the 
three amp channels, and only the first channel binds.

SSIDs affected (per Eric's patch):
   0x1043 0x3ee0  ASUS Strix G815_JHR_JMR_JPR
   0x1043 0x3ef0  ASUS Strix G635LR_LW_LX
   0x1043 0x3f00  ASUS Strix G815LH_LM_LP
   0x1043 0x3f10  ASUS Strix G835LR_LW_LX
   0x1043 0x3f20  ASUS Strix G615LR_LW   <-- my machine
   0x1043 0x3f30  ASUS Strix G815LR_LW

On my G615LW (SSID 1043:3f20) running kernel 6.19.14-101.fc44, the
broken state matches Eric's commit log exactly:

   Serial bus multi instantiate pseudo device driver TXNW2781:00: error 
-ENXIO: IRQ index 0 not found
   Serial bus multi instantiate pseudo device driver TXNW2781:00: error 
-ENXIO: IRQ index 0 not found
   Serial bus multi instantiate pseudo device driver TXNW2781:00: error 
-ENXIO: IRQ index 0 not found
   Serial bus multi instantiate pseudo device driver TXNW2781:00: 
Instantiated 3 I2C devices.

with .0 binding to tas2781-hda and .1/.2 staying at driver=NONE.
Speakers are silent. Headphones work (they're on a separate codec pin 
and don't involve TAS2781).

I've ruled out asusd as the cause — I rebooted with asusd masked and the 
failure is identical, so this is purely codec-quirk-table business.

I'm not a kernel developer and don't feel qualified to submit Eric's 
patch on his behalf. Could one of you (or Eric, if you're on this list) 
take a look and consider sending it for inclusion? It's a self-contained 
six-line change that fixes audio for a sizeable family of shipping 
laptops, and the patch is already authored and signed-off.

Happy to test patches against my G615LW.

Thanks,

Rob
