It is Ally specific. Most of the laptops will require a set of similar
quirks, but for a different codec susbsystem ID.

Some others have now been submitted, if your laptop is not yet
supported please file a bug report, if it is a ROG laptop you can
submit something here https://gitlab.com/asus-linux/asusctl and I will
help plus submit any fixes upstream per usual.

Do keep in mind that the 2023 range of ASUS laptops are almost all
missing the _DSD properties for the Cirrus amp they are using, and so
you will be missing bass/midrange until a solution is agreed upon (or
you add an ssdt patch) - you also need the correct firmware tunings for
your laptop. It is very highly unlikely ASUS will add the missing
properties to a bios update for each and every one of the laptops + the
variants in the full 2023 range.

Luke.
