No audio devices after latest kernel upgrade

English Install/Boot/Login

I ran zypper dup --allow-vendor-change yesterday and upgraded to kernel 6.7.7-1-default (64-bit). I noticed a fair number of kernel firmware upgrades go through. Now I have no audio devices recognised, neither the on-board audio, the thunderbolt interfaces, bluetooth headphones etc.
Is this a glitch in the upgrade and needs reporting as a bug or is there something I can do to re-instate them?

do you run pulseaudio?

Unless there was a copy/paste typo, you should see snd_hda_intel as the first line, like:

LT-B:~ # lsmod | grep snd_hda_intel
snd_hda_intel          65536  2
snd_intel_dspcfg       40960  1 snd_hda_intel
snd_hda_codec         233472  4 snd_hda_codec_generic,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec_realtek
snd_hda_core          155648  5 snd_hda_codec_generic,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_codec_realtek
snd_pcm               225280  4 snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_core

Maybe your chipset (newer than mine) causes conflicts between our old friend snd_hda_intel and other modules (snd_soc_skl etc.)?
Please consider posting results including the leading prompt, the full command and the trailing prompt so we can see for sure (everything of) what your system is telling us.
