Yes, if you check alsa-info (here is my output: http://alsa-project.org/db/?f=608b0585907cc0f959ebc2528e771f5260685382), you will find it:
!!Loaded ALSA modules

snd_soc_skl_hda_dsp

snd_soc_skl_hda_dsp ALSAA module basically loads snd_sof_pci and that's why you don't have metallic audio...
Even if you launch alsamixer and press F6 you will see sof-hda-dsp and not HDA Intel PCH that those with metallic audio see.
You can easily get metallic audio by switching to a mainline kernel instead of ubuntu's.
