I'd be interested in hearing if this works:

 * use your snappy SD card on the RPi
 * install LXD as a framework snap
 * make an Ubuntu machine container (analogous to your chroot-on-AMD64)
 * build your snap in there

This way, you'd not be switching SD cards, and you don't have to deal
with cross-build issues.
