Asus Zenbook UX3402 speakers on Linux

Important

THIS IS NOW OBSOLETE WITH KERNEL VERSIONS ≥ 6.7.0

A recent announcement in the kernel mail list by Cirrus developers will solve the problem described here. Therefore, the proposed solutions will be soon obsolete. See this comment (thanks, @flukejones, for the tip).

I got the speakers working on my Asus Zenbook 14 OLED UX3402, the one with Intel CPU and the two CS35L41 audio amplifiers connected over SPI (not the UM3402YA, with AMD and I²C). The amplifiers are supported by the snd_hda_scodec_cs35l41 module in recent kernel versions, but they require some model-specific configuration paramaters, that should be provided by

Why Not Use WSL?

I tried the WSL and it isn't quite seamless enough for me. I ran in to problems when editing in VSCode and having watchers on my files (ng serve, dotnet watch run, etc.). In addition, I kept running in to problems that only manifest themselves when running in WSL. For example, this issue with doing production builds and the terser plugin has made many a developer rage-quit on using WSL. Just figuring out that it was an issue with the WSL took a lot of time.

That terser plugin issue was never resolved and I ended up having to keep a git bash window open in addition to my WSL console window so I could do production builds. To make matters worse, my npm packages were platform-dependent so I couldn't use the same project folder. So, my procedure was: commit whatever changes to test branch, push to repo, git pull on my "windows" project folder, and do a production build there
