Bug#1115864: installation-reports: sound works in mate but not on the console

[Nick Gawronski <nick@nickgawronski.com>]

I just installed Forky using the currently downloadable network 
installation image on this same laptop to test it out and the same issue 
happens, I get speech in the graphical desktop but not on the console.  
Also, wireless networking works during the installation but no 
networking after the Forky release was installed.  I have attached the 
logs of that installation and have gone back to Trixie but wanted to 
share them.
