So I heard that the zenbook 13/14 don't have any audio on linux, but then I found some reddit comment saying that a kernel update fixed it. Anyone here who uses one and can confirm that?

I use a Zenbook 14 (an old one though from 2017) and I've not had audio issues on fedora since I made the switch to Linux last year. One thing I do still have issues with is sometimes it fails to sleep/suspend correctly. This isn't a consistent issue though and it seems to be a gamble on if each update will fix it or make it worse. Still not been a big enough issue to make me stop using Linux.

But yeah to answer your question, I've had no audio issues on my Zenbook 14 (other than a slight popping type noise when audio starts playing when I use headphones)

I have a UX3404VA_Q420, which is a fairly new Raptor Lake model. Mine also whiffs sleeping sometimes, so three things that I did were -

(optional) make the keyboard backlight sleep , https://z5xggcj9nj.joplinusercontent.com/shares/oOunhKjHNLSyvAIH9wpjSY
tell systemd to re-try sleeping, https://z5xggcj9nj.joplinusercontent.com/shares/lnLsgnRopyMIo7MjmzrqaO
bind a hotkey to suspend. If I hit that, let it sleep, and then close the lid then it's pretty certain that the laptop is really asleep.

Editing much later - 2 only worked accidentally. The real fix is to kill bluetooth before suspending. 2 worked because Bluetooth wasn't able to come back up in time for the 2nd suspend attempt.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
