Great. Thanks again for your help.
Longer term I'd love to work towards becoming a DM - I think I still
have a lot of learning to do though :)

Sound good - let me know if any issues.
As a note - I did find that for some reason the speaker is muted by
default and needed to go into alsamixer to unmute it (someone in the bug
saw the same effect and I've seen that previously on the P1G3 with
Debian). I don't believe that has anything to do with the SOF firmware
but is more likely an issue in ALSA/pulseaudio. I'll dig into that
separately.
