I'm using Bookworm/Testing? Doesn't Testing get the packages from Sid after
a couple of days?

No idea, I'm not running Bullseye. Pavucontrol is working and I have apt purged
PulseAudio as suggested in a previous post.

The soundcard uses snd_hda_intel. The current kernel 5.14.0-2-amd64 seems not to
have a module named captpt. Where can I read more about this rewrite? A Google
search doesn't seem to come up with much.
