When building on amd64 virtual machines on Travis we have access to nested virtualization and are able to pass on the KVM device for builds run in LXD [0].
However when using the Travis Multi CPU Architecture support there is no way to customize the LXD profile.
Would it be possible to either always enable the passing on of /dev/kvm or consider exposing control of a pre-approved list of LXD profile settings through the .travis.yml?

You can now get a full VM with ARM64 architecture:
Note that arch: arm64-graviton2 currently requires group: edge which is not mentioned in the docs (they plan to drop that requirement in a couple of weeks).

To really hit @native-api’s, point home,
group: edge is currently required. Once you’ve done that your issues should be resolved.
