Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

No response

Expected behaviour

When i boot with every linux kernel it should boot without any harsh and awkward sound in boot process.

My laptop: Asus K53SV
I'm using alsa not pulseaudio(alsa-utils and alsa-plugins-ffmpeg installed on my machine)

Actual behaviour

when i boot my laptop with latest linux kernel version(6.3.12_1) i hear a very bad and harsh sound that i can't even tolerate to hear to it. so i force to restart my pc.

Steps to reproduce
  1. turn on my laptop
  2. i see the bootloader and start void linux with latest kernel version(6.3.12_1)
  3. before entering my login information at command line i hear a very bad and harsh sound from my laptop.
  4. if i restart my machine and choose 6.1.30_1 version of kernel, everything is ok.
  5. i tested this issue with all recent versions of linux kernel and have the same issue.(6.1.31_1, 6.1.34_1, 6.1.36_1, 6.3.10_1, 6.3.10_1)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the boot sound on the Asus K53SV with Void Linux kernels 6.1.30_1 and 6.3.12_1, then compare the other listed kernel versions to identify where the regression appears. Check whether the issue is specific to the ALSA setup or the kernel; done means isolating the cause and confirming that the harsh sound no longer occurs during boot.
