Audio card driver problems Debian 11 (Creative Sound Blaster Recon3Di).

[only.someone]

I recently installed Pop!_OS alongside Windows 10 as I plan to get away from windows completely in the long run (except maybe in virtual machines).
Honestly though, I'd rather use Debian as Pop!_OS is too overloaded for me and everything I need, apart from that one thing, I can get running on Debian (I'm aware that Pop!_OS is based on Ubuntu and Ubuntu is based on Debian).

In Pop!_OS the audio card drivers run directly without me having to configure anything, however on Debian the audio card works but not everything is recognized as in Pop!_OS.
I have already downloaded the ALSA firmware, configured it (./configure) and built it (make) and moved the ctefx-r3di.bin for my audio card (Creative Sound Blaster Recon3Di) to the /usr/lib/firmware folder. However, everything is still unchanged, the audio card works on some ports but not all are recognized.

is there a way for me to transfer the correct drivers and settings that were automatically set by Pop_os! to debian ? and if so where can I find everything I need.

I have been using Debian for a long time but never had to do anything like this.

Could you post the output of this?

inxi -A

and this,

inxi -b

I have only run it on Pop!_OS for now.
What I also noticed is that in AlsaMixer the audio card is specified as "HDA Intel PCH", but under Chip it says "Creative Recon3Di".
