No Audio Output on Fedora 38 Games Spin - Acer Switch [SW5-012]

Hello fellow LinuxQuestion.org users,

I hope you are all doing well. I am reaching out to the community because I have encountered an audio issue on my Fedora 38 Games Spin installation on an Acer Switch [SW5-012]. I have tried various troubleshooting steps but haven't been able to resolve the problem.

The issue is that while audio works perfectly fine in FireFox, I am unable to get any audio output from any other application. When I open the "audio mixer," I can see the audio indicators moving, suggesting that sound is being processed. However, no sound is heard through my speakers.

Here are some details about my system:

Fedora 38 Games Spin (latest update)
Acer Switch [SW5-012]

I have already attempted the following troubleshooting steps without success:

- Checked volume levels: Made sure all the volume levels are up and not muted.
- Audio output device: Verified that the correct audio output device is selected in the sound settings.
- Restarted PipeWire & WirePlumber: Tried restarting PipeWire & WirePlumber to see if that would help, but no luck.
- Checked system logs: Examined the system logs for any related errors, only relevant part I could find was in the dmesg (see output below).

Despite trying these steps, the audio issue persists. I am wondering if there might be any specific drivers or configurations needed for the audio to work correctly on the Acer Switch [SW5-012]. If anyone else with this hardware or on the Fedora 38 Games Spin has encountered a similar problem or has any ideas on how to resolve this, I would greatly appreciate your input.

Additionally, to help with troubleshooting, here is some additional information about my system:

I am open to trying any suggestions and providing more details if needed. Your assistance would be invaluable in resolving this audio issue, and I look forward to hearing your suggestions and solutions.

Thank you in advance for your time and support!

Best regards,

Jasper

Update 1: What I tried in the meantime was routing audio output to my BT Earbuds. In this case audio is playing perfectly fine.
Also I found out that the soundcard is able to play some audio shortly (varying from 3 to 5 secs) in other applications when I change my Audio Profile in pavucontrol from "Intern Audio Pro" to "Intern Audio Pro 1" and then switch back.
