I suspect the "conflict" is just ALSA device usage at runtime, so doesn't need to be declared as an install-time conflict.

just in case it might help someone else:
I solved the problem for me by installing pulseaudio first (sudo apt -y install pulseaudio)
afterwards the installation of vanilla-gnome-desktop went without any problem
