I bought a new Zenbook 13 and installed Ubuntu 17.10.
Unfortunately, I can not get any sound output (neither internal speaker nor headphones). It is a dual boot system and the sound just works fine in Windows 10.
Already tested GNOME ALSA Mixer but it was not successful. Hope someone can help.

The problem is the linux alsa driver doesn't know how to deal with this sound card correctly.

Now that I had a few more days to experiment I found kind of a solution for my situation: When I run Windows 10 and restart the computer to switch to Ubuntu the sound seems to always disappear. However if I turn the computer off and then switch it on and load Ubuntu the sound seems to work. Still do not really understand what is causing the issue.
