That is because the latest alsa-lib already supports ucm2, and with ucm2 all machines could share one ucm, so latest alsa-lib does not have this problem. This problem is only specific to the alsa-lib in Bionic and Eoan. [Impact] On some Lenovo notebooks, UCM files are not loaded and mic can't be used. [Fix] UCM was loaded based on cardlongname, but that can't cover all configs of the same model. Lenovo suggested to load ucm by the first 3 letters of /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/bios_version, so that all configs could use just one ucm. [Test Case] After applying this patch, install the testing alsa-lib on Lenovo X1C7 and Dell vostro 5390, which are all machines with the DMIC connected to PCH. After system bootup, check the /usr/share/alsa/ucm/ for the presence of LENOVO-BIOSID-xxx directories. Lenovo X1C7 should load the N2H/*.conf and verify the audio functionalities. The Dell machine should still load the ucm by cardname, and it should work as good as before. [Regression Potential] low, just add some new UCMs and let Lenovo machine find the UCM by bios_version if it fails by cardlongname. I've already tested the change on Lenovo and Dell machines.
