Bug Description
[Impact]
Marking alsa-utils as M-A: foreign will allow i386 packages that depend on alsa-utils to install on a amd64 system. Since alsa interfaces are architecture independent, foreign seems like the correct marking.
$ sudo apt-get install my-32-bit-app
my-32-bit-app:i386 : PreDepends: alsa-utils:i386 but it is not installable
[Test Case]
Install a 32-bit package that depends or pre-depends on alsa-utils and have it properly install.
[Regression Potential]
Minimal as this change on affects multi-arch status only.

As with the alsa-base bug, this is already changed in raring packaging branches. I will post diffs for quantal and precise. Thanks @themuso for making the change in raring!
