Internal Speakers/Jack detected but no audio comes out

Hello, i recently installed manjaro along side windows and ubuntu 18.04 and i am unable to get the speakers to work on my system. I know they do work as both windows and ubuntu are capable of using it.
I found this in dmesg, i have no idea if its related to this problem though.

It looks like i may be having a few issues with audio? there also appeared to be an Xorg core dump just before thisThis text will be hidden
EDIT:
Ive just looked inside modprobe.d and found that i dont have an alsa file at all, on ubuntu atleast changing that changed my systems sound severely. Should that be missing?

Onboard audio device Intel Cannon Lake PCH and 9th Generation Intel CPU probably has a built-in digital microphone array (DMIC) that is not supported by the usual snd_hda_intel driver
system requires a different driver for the DMIC from package sof-firmware

But SOF drivers did not work well when first released and needed a number of patches to work on laptop systems

The usual modprobe.d option for these systems was a workaround to disable the internal DMIC
so the rest of the sound card would use the ‘legacy’ snd_hda_intel driver

# /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf
options snd-intel-dspcfg dsp_driver=1

(Ubuntu may have used an older option snd-hda-intel dmic_detect=0 but that option is no longer supported by kernel v5.8)

But if use of internal DMIC is needed, system needs package sof-firmware installed and a later version of PulseAudio (v13.99) that has patches included for the DMIC

See this discussion for how to switch to Manjaro testing branch to get the development version of PulseAudio - Problems with audio on laptop

Update on previous post:

PulseAudio v13.99 is in latest stable branch update - [Stable Update] 2020-11-04

so changing branches is not needed now - just update all stable packages
