Comment:
@icp1994 Unfortunately, I just tried installing that, and it didn't work. I even went through the trouble of booting archlinux from a usb using voidlinux's kernel and installing `linux-firmware` and `alsa-firmware` (I didn't know about the packages you just provided. But I knew something else that might've worked so I tried it).  
I had no luck with both firmwares. Yet enabling that single option in the kernel configuration just solves my issue (at least temporarily).

So I believe this is a kernel problem. Not a firmware problem.

I booted void linux with the default void kernel (To gather some information about this) and sound didn't work even when I rebooted to the custom kernel. It just died. Looking at `dmesg`. There was this section that appeared at boot (and every time I try to `rmmod snd_hda_intel && modprobe snd_hda_intel`.)
```

```
And then booting voidlinux with arch's `linux-zen` just fixed the problem again.

My assumption is that voidlinux's default kernel saves some faulty value somewhere which my custom kernel (void's config with `CONFIG_SND_HDA_INTEL_HDMI_SILENT_STREAM` enabled) is enable to overwrite. Hens the `can't change power state from D3cold to D0` in dmesg.  
My assumption is based on the existence of a [bug](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Backlight#Backlight_is_always_at_full_brightness_after_a_reboot_with_amdgpu_driver) where a value is not saved correctly which might cause problems but I am no expert.  
For all I know, enabling the option mentioned in the title fixes the problem as long as the last booted kernel is not the defaut kernel (the one who has that option not set).

Before I finish. I believe I should provide some hardware specifications. So here is the output of `lspci`
