the root filesystem (even if it would work with the above settings)
because it will make snapshots of /@ messy.
If you manually do this, it will work:

I can confirm that with the proper Ubuntu 22.04 Beta on baremetal. I get

Hello. I finally managed to work and locate the files and the code to change to
make the swapfile work on Btrfs, I have tested it on several installations for

I ran it manually after installation:

So the swapfile needs to be NOCOW before allocation [1]:
# truncate -s 0 /swapfile
