Try the later version of alsa-driver or kernel, and pass model=auto.
As default model=acer is chosen for ALC883 with Acer vendor SSID,
and it's known that it doesn't match with the recent Acer laptops

Please run alsa-info.sh with --no-upload option, and attach the
generated file.  This will contain more comprehensive information.
The script is found at
