UPDATE: As of Feb 1,2023 I paid the money and opened a ticket with AWS and this is the response.. Keep waiting:
Reaching out to the internal team in terms of Patch Manager for Ubuntu 22.04, we were notified that the addition of Ubuntu 22.04 for Patch Manager is currently a “work-in-progress” and is on its roadmap to be released in the near future. While no exact ETA is currently available, you can expect to see this release in the latter half of the first quarter of this year. I would suggest you to keep an eye on our SSM documentation [1] and What’s New page [2] for latest updates. I do apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. Please bear with us for sometime as the SSM team works on getting this release out in the near future.
SSM documentation - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/patch-manager-prerequisites.html What’s New - https://aws.amazon.com/new/
I've tested this on an upgraded Ubuntu 22.04 host and also on a CLEAN new Ubuntu 22.04 host from official AWS - Canonical image and attempts to patch either host using the AWS SSM RunPatchBaseLine fail.

Problems with the current - new SSM Patch manager STILL NOT working on Ubuntu 22.04, may, this is NOT conclusive, but might be related to the new "services need restart" popup that got added to Ubuntu 22.04.
My test instance failed to patch last night, Patch manager, 'Detailed Status' was "terminated". And I cannot get to the 'View output' section of the SSM ui for that patch run.
When I ran apt update on the command line it worked.. BUT, I got a 'services need to be restarted" popup, which interactively I could respond to.. I am wondering if that is messing with the python scripts that are doing the patching..
Take a read through of: How to stop ubuntu pop-up "Daemons using outdated libraries" when using apt to install or update packages?
And:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1367139/apt-get-upgrade-auto-restart-services
I have updated my 'test' instance and will monitor to see if that helps.
As of 4/4/2023 the AWS Link https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/prereqs-operating-systems.html shows that 22.04 is supported by SSM patch manager.. Now I need to test it to make sure thats' true..
