Anyone own a Thinkpad, and having issues putting it to sleep and detecting audio on Focal?

My ThinkPad X1 Yoga currently can’t sleep and play any audio on Focal. Any idea what could be missing from my laptop?

I know this forum isn’t a help site, but I figured I shouldn’t post on Ask Ubuntu since 20.04 isn’t out yet.

Audio issues are common and difficult to solve (see the top line in this chart). The reason is that despite there only being a limited number of audio chips to write kernel drivers for, there’s a much much larger number of laptop/motherboard models in the world and each one often requires its own “driver” of sorts to define the audio port/speaker routing. So each model of laptop may need a different bug report and a different fix.

Please keep the conversation in the bug itself so we can help you as quickly as possible.
