That's too bad for speaker support cause these M1/2 have the best sound I've seen on any laptop. How are the graphic performance, can they match what we have on macOS? I secretly dream of the day we will be able to use the Apple silicon macs for VR. I actually managed to get some things to work decently with a 2018 intel Mac and ALVR a while back.
Apparently that good sound is due to extensive software processing. The asahi devs really want to make a good impression, so they're spending a lot of time tweaking their sound processing to try to match or beat the MacOS quality before release. Which is both good and annoying. I appreciate the attention to detail, but it would be nice to have any speaker support when I just need to hear something quickly.
The graphics drivers are still in active development, but they have OpenGL3.1 support. Vulkan is under development.
I haven't tried games, but have seen some posts where users have them working. I don't think many games are compiled for arm yet though. The graphics dev did a youtube stream back in march where she plays steam games using FEX-Emu. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJSfFzsU75g
