Kernel 6.12.19 compiled for Daedalus with AVS enabled

I have previously compiled the 6.12.x kernel in Easy Daedalus, but had problems with Xe video and AVS audio drivers, so turned them off:

• Linux kernel 6.12.12 configured without AVS and Xe — February 03, 2025

Decided to have another go, compiled 6.12.19 with AVS enabled, and sub-category "Intel AVS machine drivers" all enabled as modules. The failed audio had previously only occurred on my Acer Aspire 1; this time, audio works.

Interesting, running "dmesg", although 'snd_soc_avs.ko' has loaded, it looks like the legacy audio driver has grabbed the audio first.

With Easy Scarthgap and Daedalus, I reverted to the 6.6.x kernel, specifically 6.6.67, and that's what is used in the latest releases. But now, for Easy Daedalus, plan to go back to using the 6.12.x kernel. Maybe Scarthgap also.
