I have Steam Deck LCD and Steam Deck OLED and I use many distros on them and I absolutely agree with the point that it's ridiculous that it needs multiple proprietary firmwares and a convoluted configuration to make onboard audio work – Steam Deck OLED is actually worse in this respect if you can believe it because it has an even newer sound coprocessor that needs rarer firmware!
However, after spending many hours troubleshooting similar problems, i have been able to make audio work perfectly on generic distros on both of them .
I love your channel rene rebe and I want to help. So right now I will boot T2 SDE on my Steam Deck LCD and try to reproduce your exact error. If I get results that I think might help I will follow up.
i wouldn't spend my own money on this, but if i were to sell csgo skins for 500 currency of your choise i would consider it
maybe just using the "Protection" DSP firmware and not "Calirbated" might fix it?

PS: and then audio was fine using CLI ALSA, e.g. play but silent in pipewire because it or wireplumber switches the Left and Right PCM Source from ADSP to just DSP which produces silence for me!? Can't make so much failing ecosystem and bugs up. :-/
I just use bluetooth headphones. But I'm entertained by this video.
