Indeed UCM is required for all cases where SOF and PulseAudio are used.
Our thinking was however to add this UCM file to the new repository outside of alsa-lib [1]. There is an on-going thread started by Jaroslav to move those files and relicense them as BSD-3-Clause [2]

Thanks Pierre.
Do we have any approximate timelines on when and how this will happen? (I'm new to this)
One of my main aims is that we have a customer using Debian and one of our platforms that require this change - I need to make sure I understand how this would roll out and what actions they need to take in the meantime if it's not going to be available in Debian.
I think the first order would be to have the file cleaned-up, with its Intel origin clearly stated with a signed-off-by tag.
Then once this is done, the Debian package creation needs to be handled (using either the ALSA repo or the cloned version on SOF GitHub). I don't have any experience with Debian packages so can't really comment on the effort it would take.
I did some cleanups here:

Pierre, could you confirm the original source and are you ok with that?
Cleanup looks fine to me, we should add still UCM "PlaybackVolume" and "CaptureVolume" settings, because otherwise Pulseaudio will use SW volume only. This will make for example HDA led quirks useless... (and actually CaptureVolume and PlaybackVolume in pulseaudio ucm support is still not integrated, hopefully soon). Defining Capture and PlaybackVolume should not do any harm currently for user space.
I can do that, Jaroslav you want PR against github or patches here to mailing list?
As you wish. Both ways are acceptable for me. Note that I did another cleanup for 'Bass Speaker' for Carbon X1 7th and merged 'import' branch to 'master' branch on github (so do the PR against master, if you like).
Thanks, Jaroslav
