When you say "it's not working", do you mean that the recipe I proposed is not working, or that you did not attempt it as proposed since you couldn't find the PPA reference in the snapcraft.yaml of the snap?

The PPA doesn't need to be in the snap, only in the host, as in the latter is the socket and the service to be activated via that socket.
