Please read the text more carefully.  It *might* be too old for *newer*
kernels.

The current sof-firmware package for Leap 15.6 contains the files at the time
Leap 15.6 was initially developed.  That is, it was the latest stuff at that
time.  OTOH, you are using a much newer (unofficial) kernel package (6.11), and
the firmware *might* have become outdated for it.

6.11 must be much newer than what Debian has, and if anything doens't work with
it, it implies that it's a breakage in the upstream.  Blame upstream if
something is broken there.

And, my suggestion to test the newer sof-firmware came from the wild guess from
the kernel messages.  Verify it at first.  OK?
