According to Windows 10, it uses a Conexant SmartAudio HD. Haiku is seeing it as “Intel HD Audio” (the N580 uses an Intel B960 CPU, so maybe…?), yet nothing is heard. Is there another option for sound or am I simply… skunked (unsupported audio chipset)?
It’s more likely the codec is misconfigured… could you post your syslog , the output of listdev and listusb that would help alot thanks!
Conexant is just a brand of codec that is compatible with Intel HD Audio… so Haiku is saying the right thing it just isn’t working.

Unlikely, that OpenSound will work… its more for older chips.

Yes, I have the same issue on my ThinkPad E550. It seems the newer HDA chips confuse our driver; there’s some initialization we’re missing here. I’ve found that after a warm reboot from Windows, it usually works, though.
Forgot how to do a syslog, but here is my listdev:

Have you loaded a recent nightly of Haiku on there? If not do that before continuing or at least boot from a USB key if you don’t want to trash your current install.
Just search for your file system for syslog… you don’t “do it” Haiku is logging to it automatically and you just need to post it.
Also I’m a bit surprised to see you replying to this after two years!
Ok, so I just do a search for “syslog”. And the reason I’m replying after all this time is because I still have this system and I’m still having this issue. 
or find it in /var/log
You still didn’t answer if you had updated the system from 2 years ago… we are moving into development of Beta 2, so giving us information from Beta 1 isn’t’ useful you need to use a recent nightly.
Yes, it’s recent… hrev54010, to be precise.
Uh, how and where do I send (whomever) my syslog? I tried here, it won’t accept the file, even renamed as a picture file (.jpg). And the text is far too much, too.
You can also upload your syslog in the bug tracker after you create the ticket.
I don’t want to be redundant. Based on my listdev and listusb, has this issue already been brought up in the bug tracker, or would it only be revealed if it’s redundant, via my syslog?
Having both a forum topic and a bug report is redundant and makes it hard to track the info.
When you have a compatibility problem, report it on the bugtracker and put all the info there. Yes, maybe we’ll find someone else has the exact same hardware and exact same problem. Maybe not. But that’s up to the bug triaging team to decide. So, look on the bugtracker, make sure no existing ticket mentions the IdeaPad N580, and if you can’t find one, create one.
