Devices that were not updated correctly:

 • System Firmware (1.3.0 → 1.23.0)

Devices that have been updated successfully:

 • BC511 NVMe SK hynix 512GB (11001101 → 11004101)

If I reboot then I see that BIOS version is on version 1.23.0

I ve booted with live usb either ubuntu 22.04 or 23.04 and I still have Dummy Output and no soundcard.

Any ideas?

I was able to fix the problem with the solution provided here

https://askubuntu.com/a/1295435/1072868

Added /etc/default/grub to be:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="snd-intel-dspcfg.dsp_driver=1"

And then executed

sudo update-grub
