I think your dell has different wifi and I think audio. The wifi driver for the xps 9310 is iwlwifi. Here is some firmware info: https://support.killernetworking.com/knowledge-base/killer-ax1650-in-debian-ubuntu-16-04/ and here is some qubes specific info on your wifi driver: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/5615
I think the audio is different too, as the xps 9700 needs the 5.10 kernel to work, but the base-config patch above does enable CONFIG_SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE which I think you need too.To patch the kernel you must build it from source with qubes-builder https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/qubes-builder/. First configure it. Then change kernel to master branch in builer.conf. after the "make get-sources" is when you would patch with config-base in qubes-builder/qubes-src/linux-kernel.
fedora 33 5.10 kernel supports much more devices and audio works in the upstream fedora on both the 9700 and 9310 dells. I'll see if I can get a patch into qubes the upstream kernel modules which fedora has added or at the minimum the SOF stuff in the patch. Then all our audio will just work with qubes.

The AX1650 is waay much more well behaved and it is the one that is usually shipped on XPS developer edition. Unfortunately XPS developer edition does not have a 32GB RAM option, which was absolutely needed for me, being Qubes unbelievably ram hungry. So I was forced to purchase the model with the Killer AX500 T_TI think the audio is different too, as the xps 9700 needs the 5.10 kernel to work, but the base-config patch above does enable CONFIG_SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE which I think you need too.To patch the kernel you must build it from source with qubes-builder https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/qubes-builder/.

I'll try to give a look to this by the end of the week, when I'll have a bit less work to do :)fedora 33 5.10 kernel supports much more devices and audio works in the upstream fedora on both the 9700 and 9310 dells.

Then all our audio will just work with qubes.That would be a wonderful, wonderful thing. In the meantime I'll try to learn how to compile my own kernels, my pc also tends to heat quite a lot and I suspect that a taylored kernel could make my overall experience better, correct me if I'm wrong... :)
