+Subject: Disable audiopd daemon on QRB2210
+
+QRB2210 (RB1 and Arduino Uno Q) exposes /dev/fastrpc-adsp, so the unit's
+existing ConditionPathExists= checks pass and adsprpcd is started, but on
+these Agatti platforms the device tree does not protect the memory region
+used by fastrpc. Starting the audiopd daemon reboots the board which makes
+the machine unusable rather than simply leaving the unit failed.
+
+The kernel side is fixed by the device tree patch linked below but it may
+not reach released kernels for some time. Until it does, guard the
+unit with a ConditionFirmware= match on the device tree compatible so it
+is skipped on affected machines:
+https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260908-agatti-audio-v4-1-b3db91d3fdec@oss.qualcomm.com/

+Bug: https://github.com/qualcomm-linux/qcom-deb-images/issues/572
