Damn, they added support RT 5650 but not 5640. I've been working on this Bay Trail netbook that uses that audio chipset and it currently doesn't work.

When using a distro like Mint 17.2 with Skylake is the only option to go without sound until a newer kernel becomes available? I'm trying to find a fix for it but not having much luck
