well, you dont really need alsa *access* you can ship the libs and
config in your snap (and have full control over your dependencies), what
you need is direct device access for that setup ... that way you can
also have all realtime love you can imagine without the underlying host
system interfering ...

so instead of an alsa interface we should have an audio-device interface
that you can use more flexible...
