Bug Description
The acpi-tools snap has the 'hardware-observe' interface, but this is not (no longer?) sufficient for 'acpidump' to run correctly.
This is error thrown (Ubuntu 20.04 base installion):
$ sudo acpi-tools.acpidump -b
Cannot open directory - /sys/firmware/
Could not get ACPI tables, AE_ACCESS
Note that it's possible to run this if the snap was installed with the '--devmode' flag.

Hi, can you paste the system journal denials for this snap:
journalctl --no-pager | grep DENIED | grep acpi-tools
Thanks
