If this issue also happens to cold boot it seems to be a BIOS issue.
I've discussed the problem in more detail [1] before sending the patch. In short, speakers seems to reliably work in live Ubuntu which differs in using initrd with modules vs UEFI stub with built-in drivers in my case (I've tried Ubuntu kernel sources). I've tried using modules as well (modprobe'ing the list of modules which are load by Ubuntu) with no success.
It was suggested that there is a timing issue somewhere. I'm opened for ideas to try to debug the problem origins further (to avoid the need in the fixup).
Yes it does sound like a timing issue. Most system firmwares are only test against Windows.
HP has started to enable Ubuntu on some of their systems, but your case (EFI stub) is uncovered.
If the issue only happen to warm boot, please try reverting commit 9d3fcb28f9b9 "Revert "PM: ACPI: reboot: Use S5 for reboot"". Many HP systems requires it to have a functional reboot.
If possible, please still give that commit a try.
Well, the first cold boot (with this commit reverted) didn't have any sound, the same goes for the subsequent reboot.
Thanks for the testing.
