Sudden system freezes when playing audio through the ACP node. Cause: Bug in the snd-sof-amd driver related to buffer pointer updates. Fix: Upgrade to kernel 6.2 or newer, where the AMD ACP driver underwent significant rewrites. Alternatively, force the legacy snd-hda-intel driver instead of SOF. acp hda node
When an ACP node is paired with an HDA node, the system uses a "bridge" or "glue" layer. In this configuration, the ACP acts as the controller that manages the flow of data, while the HDA node defines the specific capabilities of the audio hardware, such as bit depth, sample rates, and channel configurations. This modular approach allows manufacturers to pair a powerful processing engine (ACP) with various third-party codecs (HDA) depending on the device's needs.
