I've installed Linux 21 on my alienware laptop as half dualboot with Windows 10 and everything works reasonably well... apart from the audio. Maybe it's because I may be an audiophile that enjoys the full spectrum of audio in a symphony but the sound quality from playing music and podcasts is really shitty. I've been following [this tutorial](https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto) and ran the command `cat /proc/asound/card0/codec* | grep Codec` in my terminal and found I'm running a `Realtek ALC3266` with `Intel Kabylake HDMI`. I couldn't find ALC3266 in `/usr/share/doc/alsa-base/driver/HD-Audio-Models.txt.gz` so I opted for `alienware` as my model name (hey, let's just pick a random variable - what's the worst that could happen!) and nano opened `/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf` and added the line of code `options snd-hda-intel model=alienware`. The audio is still working... a little better but is there a good configuration/good method to configure the audio? I also have *Jack Retasking for HDA Intel Sound cards* installed and when you select the soundcard and select *Show unconnected pins* it'll show a lot of unconnected pins which I daren't touch because they're all just titled "Not Connected" with pin addresses like `Pin ID: 0x14` Any thoughts? Right now the audio sounds like it has the same range as a record player.
