First post, trying solve my no audio realtek alc295 problems with the useful hints and tips that I have found so far on this forum and beyond but with no such luck.
I am running Linux MInt 20.3 Cinnamon, with a dual partition with windows, audio is still working fine there. Trying to play through in built speakers on HP laptop.
This is my inxi -Fxz:
