Newer Matebook D14 model comes with essx8336 and supports SOF, but the initial models use the legacy driver, with a Realtek ALC 256 AC97 chip on it.
The BIOS seems to be prepared to be used by both models, so it contains an entry for ESSX8336 on its DSDT table.
Add a quirk, as otherwise dspconfig driver will try to load SOF, causing audio probe to fail.

This sounds like an 'easy enough' fix, but I don't have a burning desire to start adding quirks of this nature. To be clear, the entire support of the ES8336 is an absolute nightmare that I've stopped looking at completely given the lack of support of vendor/OEMs.
In this case, the ACPI table is completely wrong, we should try to 'mark' the ES8336 device as 'not present' or detect the presence of HDaudio.
Andy, what do you think and what would be your recommendation?

Heh, I know the pain, having working myself to have some support for audio on two different notebooks with my siblings, both with es8336. On both cases, the BIOS info was not really useful, requiring quirks to make device to work properly.
This is btw a common issue I'm aware for a long time: BIOS data is not reliable, as vendors tend to re-use BIOS from one device on others, without actually reflecting what it is on each device.
The EDAC subsystem never relies on DMI data for memory banks - as even server BIOS from top tear manufacturers usually report wrong data for motherboard's DIMM labels. Instead, an userspace application reads DMI data and propose changes, but patches for rasdaemon are required to add such labels to a database.

In any case, this specific device doesn't have es8336 ;-)
Also, I don't think this problem will remain confined to es8336: any other SOF driver may have the same problem: a BIOS (or a BIOS update) may add non-existent _HID devices to DSDT, causing the driver to disable AC97 support, enabling SOF instead and causing regressions.
As I wrote at the Github issue, one solution would be to do an I2C scan to detect if the SOF device(s) reported by BIOS are really present. This would require that, before calling snd_intel_acpi_dsp_driver_probe():
- the I2C bus to be created; - Runtime PM for the audio device needs to put resume the device and I2C bus controller, if suspended; - the I2C address of the audio device needs to be known by sound/hda/intel-dsp-config.c
With that, a zero-byte (or one-byte if zero-byte not support) read or write could detect if the device is there, before initializing it - or calling the device-specific driver.
Another solution would be to probe the SOF driver, falling back to AC97 if SOF init fails.
In this case, the ACPI table is completely wrong, we should try to 'mark' the ES8336 device as 'not present' or detect the presence of HDaudio.

This initial patch was replaced by the one I sent on Friday "[PATCH] ALSA: hda: intel-dsp-config: harden I2C/I2S codec detection"
I should have made it clearer in the commit message, sorry.

I can add it in my side, but let's wait for the review by Intel people at first.
