I apologize for my assumption.

The lspci snipped you showed did have snd_ens1371 enabled,
so it is plausible that this is just a mixer problem.

alsa and pulse both have command-line tools to adjust mixing.

For alsa, try:

amixer scontrols

to get the available controls.

Some combination of the following might work:

amixer -c 0 set Master 100%
amixer -c 0 set PCM 100%
amixer -c 0 set Headphone 100%
amixer -c 0 set Beep 0%


As painful as alsa's tools are, pulseaudio's tools are worse.

pactl list cards
pactl set-sink-volume 0 100%

might work.
