Some help, though these are hard to diagnose with just what is here.
1) When I rebooted the laptop this morning it failed to boot and dropped into emergency mode. Looking at the logs I see at lot of these messages:
systemd-udevd[610]: could not find module by name='i2c_i801' systemd-udevd[612]: could not find module by name='lpc_ich' The system boots fine on 4.18.18-200.fc28.x86_64
The other system is running 4.19.2-200.fc28.x86_64 without issues.
This seems like a initramfs problem, the kernel is unable to find modules it needs. Is it possible the disk is having problems?
2) When I view a video with chrome I get no sound, but the same video played on firefox has sound.
This has to be a setting, either a permissions problem, or a muted output.
3) When I run pavucontrol the configuration shows 2 entries for built in audio. It shows "Digital Stereo (HDMI) OUtput" for one and "Analog Stereo Duplex" for the other. Under "Output Devices" it shows "HDMI/Display Port (plugged in)" and "Speakers". The only thing I have plugged into the HDMI port is my monitor so I don't why it should show up here since it has no speakers. The strange behavior I'm seeing is that I will turn the HDMI configuration off, but some time later it's been turned back on.
Video cards are identified by alsa as hd-intel audio output devices because of their nature. You should make the analog device the default device in pavucontrol.
Try the command alsamixer -c 1 to see what is happening with the analog device.
4) I still can't get chrome to work on the desktop. If I connect to non https sites chrome connects fine, but connecting to https sites results in "Your connection is not private" messages. This has been going on now for over a week.
No idea on this. Sounds like either a missing library, or a permissions or setting problem.
Anyone else seeing any of these issues?
No.
