I upgraded to Cosmic through tonight, and now I have no audio: neither my laptop speakers nor the ehadphone jack seem to do anything. The audio settings menu shows only a "dummy audio" option.
Below are the outputs of aplay and lspci, which I have seen asked for in the Ubuntu forums (on three year old threads, but whatever).
What can I do to get the sound working? My only idea would be to reinstall 18.04, which worked fine.
$ lspci | grep -i audio
00:1f.3 Audio device: Intel Corporation Sunrise Point-LP HD Audio (rev 21)
$ aplay -l
