sof-jsl-es8336.tplg missing

[tomty89]

Although as of linux 5.16.13 (and sof-bin 2.0), analog sound still doesn't seem to work at all on my laptop. However, DP sound seems to work fine with sof-jsl-es8336.tplg provided here. Is there a reason it isn't provided/included here?

Btw although it shows/works on ALSA, pulseaudio does not show card profile for its HDMI/DP card devices:

aplay -l:

Should I file an issue for that somewhere else? (I don't think pulseaudio upstream has anything to do with it.)

The patches for ES8336 support will be in 5.18, and you need the latest topologies that are not in sof-bin yet - they will be in the release 2.1.

If you want to experiment, try our development tree (topic/sof-dev branch) and the attached topologies
es8336-topologies-4.tar.gz

However, DP sound seems to work fine with sof-jsl-es8336.tplg provided #3210 (comment). Is there a reason it isn't provided/included here?

You haven't given any specific model number but I'm guessing the reason why it's not included is simply because no one submitted yet to the git repo the code and/or topology to support it. That or it hasn't been released yet.

I'm guessing your laptop vendor supports only Windows, correct?
