This might be a bug in Ubuntu project side, not related to ALSA project.

Please check your kernel configuration, like:
$ grep SND_ICE /boot/config-4.4.1-040401-generic
CONFIG_SND_ICE1724=m

You cannot see CONFIG_SND_ICE1712. This means that snd-ice1712 is not 
built for your kernel.

I don't know the reason, but for your information:
Collateral damage due to kernel configuration change enabling 
CONFIG_ZONE_DEVICE (Kernel 4.4 amd64)
