So I heard that the zenbook 13/14 don’t have any audio on linux, but then I found some reddit comment saying that a kernel update fixed it. Anyone here who uses one and can confirm that?

I use a Zenbook 14 (an old one though from 2017) and I’ve not had audio issues on fedora since I made the switch to Linux last year. One thing I do still have issues with is sometimes it fails to sleep/suspend correctly. This isn’t a consistent issue though and it seems to be a gamble on if each update will fix it or make it worse. Still not been a big enough issue to make me stop using Linux.
But yeah to answer your question, I’ve had no audio issues on my Zenbook 14 (other than a slight popping type noise when audio starts playing when I use headphones)
I have a UX3404VA_Q420, which is a fairly new Raptor Lake model. Mine also whiffs sleeping sometimes, so three things that I did were -
(optional) make the keyboard backlight sleep , https://z5xggcj9nj.joplinusercontent.com/shares/oOunhKjHNLSyvAIH9wpjSY
tell systemd to re-try sleeping, https://z5xggcj9nj.joplinusercontent.com/shares/lnLsgnRopyMIo7MjmzrqaO
bind a hotkey to suspend. If I hit that, let it sleep, and then close the lid then it’s pretty certain that the laptop is really asleep.
Editing much later - 2 only worked accidentally. The real fix is to kill bluetooth before suspending. 2 worked because Bluetooth wasn’t able to come back up in time for the 2nd suspend attempt.
