[SOLVED] How do I get audio working on my ThinkPad

I'm having issues getting audio working on my laptop. I can't figure out how to get it working. This is a fresh install of Artix on Dinit and I'm just confused as the wiki kinda sucks. Can someone help me get sound working? Thanks!

EDIT: nevermind.
EDIT 2: nevermind, i still need help :(
EDIT 3: don't bother with pipewire. Just do pulseaudio.
EDIT 4:

Install PulseAudio.
Reinstall
Code: [Select]
linux
and
Code: [Select]
linux-firmware
Done.

pipewire exits with status 254 when I try starting it via Dinit.

Oh, it magically got fixed by me installing PulseAudio instead of Pipewire. Thanks for initiating the magical fix by trying to help.

Hello.

This is due to that because PulseAudio will automatically start when needed. For Pipewire, you can use your DE (or wm) autostarting mechanism.

like the wiki says
Code: [Select]
 dinitctl enable pipewire
