After purchasing a replacement speaker, these steps worked well. Process to a fairly relaxed 20 minutes.

The only thing I’d add is that the speaker is part # AAC121217U22A, and appears to be a bespoke part containing two speakers.

Knowing what part to look for may help others looking for a replacement part.
