According to the MATE System Monitors in my Void and Fienix6, 6.6rc7 functions in both.
And I have the kernels in lib/modules of both platforms, but Test Speakers in Sound Preferences doesn't make any noise in either.

You have not installed the kernel modules 6.6.0-rc7, so your sound card does not work.

As I pointed out, I am using the final, stable version of kernal 6.6. Do I still have to have all the rc versions that lead up to it?
I also have kernal 6.6.0_A-EON_X5000 in Fienix6, but I get no sound there recently either.
root@fienix:/home/fienix# ls /lib/modules
6.0.0-6-powerpc64 6.6.0_A-EON_X5000
6.1.0_A-EON_X1000_Nemo 6.6.0-rc3_A-EON_X5000
6.1.0_A-EON_X5000 6.6.0-rc6_A-EON_X5000
6.6.0-a3_A-EON_X5000-g7ba2090ca64e-dirty 6.6.0-rc7_A-EON_X5000
And lsmod doesn't seem to work in Fienix the way it did in void:
root@fienix:/home/fienix# lsmod

After posting the above from fienix I came to void and tried lsmod again, with extremely different results, but still no mention of a kernel:

And still no sound, even though VLC comes up with a timing bar moving across the bottom of the screen.

Which sound card is installed in your X5000?

6.7-alpha1:
Virtual ppce500 QEMU machine with the
virtio-gpu-pci or
virtio-vga:
There is a fbdev issue. (The penguins are not displayed at boot time).
Code: Select all
[ 0.889302] virtio-pci 0000:00:02.0: [drm] *ERROR* fbdev: Failed to setup generic emulation (ret=-2)
The kernel 6.6 final doesn't have this issue.
This is not a problem with the VirtIO GPU driver. The developers have changed the code for displaying the penguins for CPU cores at boot time.

I reported this issue to the kernel developers today.

I'm not sure how to find out without getting the box out and opening it up and peeking, but maybe this is a clue?
https://ibb.co/M8SCpzm
That Radeon 7000 bit sounds very familiar. I would have thought that is what I have. But I can't turn it on, prsumably because it isn't there.
The test speaker buttons don't work, but I did get just one sentence from Duolingo, belatedly, again today, in Fienix.

I see. The CMI8738/CMI8768 PCI card is activated and works but there are some issues with these sound cards. See thread
Sound absent.

Looks hopeless. MATE System Monitor indicates that the first alpha of 6.7 works

but I won't be using AmigaOneX5000 Linux much anymore if there's no way to get sound on it.
