Actually, the noble kernel that contains the fix is out in a PPA
already. So this can be tested in noble. We'll run the test on noble and
keep you updated.

In the meantime, what can we do about questing and plucky? (and can
oracular be skipped because EOL?)

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:

  [ Impact ]

   * This is a hardware enablement SRU.

   * It adds an alias to alsa-lib to handle the enw hardware correctly.

  [ Fix ]

   * Adding `hda-acpi cards.HDA-Intel` to the conf/cards/aliases list.

  [ Test Plan ]

   * Install the newest libasound package from proposed
   * Check for regression on any hardware with a simple use of `aplay 
<file.wav>`
   * We don't have the kernel-space feature right now, and thus cannot test the 
actual feature that comes from upstream.

  [ Where problems could occur ]

   * The new name could be wrong, and the hardware would not get
  enabled. That would require a patch upstream, and then a backport
  again. Assuming NVIDIA (who carried the fix upstream) did not make
  that mistake, since it got merged to main.

  
  Original description:

  There is a new audio driver upstream:
  https://lore.kernel.org/all/aCXswg1gr6cufyzp@ddadap-
  lakeline.nvidia.com/.

  Once the support for this driver lands on the Kernel, alsa-lib needs
  to be changed to add a new alias:

  lakeline.nvidia.com/
