[ubuntu] Ubuntu on Macbook Pro - touchpad sometimes doesn't work

I've just installed Ubuntu alongside MacOS on my Macbook Pro. I'm new to Linux and I'm looking forward to make a full transition to it - but I'm firstly learning to use it and solve some of the issues I find.

However, sometimes the trackpad doesn't work when booting Ubuntu. The trackpad doesn't respond (but the keyboard is always fine) and I need to plug a USB mouse in order to control the cursor.

My Kernel version is `5.11.0-31-generic`. I already tried the solution provided in https://unix.stackexchange.com/quest...with-dual-boot but I got the error:

If it helps, my `hwinfo` gives to the keyboard:
