Looking to sound/soc/intel/boards/cht_bsw_rt5672.c I see no
suspend-resume hooks. Perhaps, adding them like in the commit
ac8bd9e13be2 ("r8169: Disable clk during suspend / resume") would
help.

Btw, what the drivers are in use for the machine you have? It's better
you run alsa-info.sh or alike to collect necessary information along
with output of `lsmod`, `dmesg`, etc.
