As opposed to normal Orcs, who drink blood because it's "ded 'ard"
Do orcs count?

Because of the particularly accursed and unfavorable circumstances of their typical feeding?

They are Carnivorous mushrooms
You're thinking too literally. Ulgu wouldn't be recording and reproducing sound, it would be creating something that seems real but isn't.
Ones that are at least potentially dangerous to an inattentive human can be found everywhere, but they get particularly hardcore in Lustria, the Southlands, and presumably Khuresh.

So we can have some skele-fun?

So, conceptual stuff rather than literal stuff?
Not rather than, as well as. There are different aspects to every Wind. For Ulgu, the literal aspects are things like shadow and fog, while there's the conceptual aspects of lies, illusion and ambiguity, and the emotional aspects of confusion and uncertainty. Wizards use the full range of aspects to get the maximum amount of utility out of the Wind they specialize in.

Maybe we could reanimate skeletons, like in "Night at the Museum".

Capturing beasts alive is a process with a failure rate. You could receive that failure rate. There's less things you can do with a skeleton, but it is easier to fit them in crates and they're a lot less likely to try to bite you.
Start simple. We can progress from there.

while I might be effected by the opera i maintain that this is the best choice for us. Maybe in the future the Great Admiral could build an opera stage or at the very least a musical hall for our estemed madam Direfin in the future. I think the vampire coast could benifit from a more formal apperance of the Prima donna!

As a person going for for her as romance option (if it comes) I support this action

I like how you refer to the runner-up lever that lost by one vote here. It's not what ultimately underlies this relationship, but it's relevant enough to mention.
So how does this principal interact with a Liche Priest's existence? They're capable of going without sustenance:
How do they maintain themselves without consuming anything?

Liche priests are not disembodied souls without prior training to be disembodied souls, and who quite often probably were not expecting to be disembodied souls.
There's probably lot of training involved in stopping to need food.
More interestingly, the tomb kings.
Do they still need food? Did they stop needing food after being raised? Was it because Nagash did the thing?
Or did they just get used to over time?
Also, how much of Nehekara's annual agricultural output was spend on feeding dead people?

Magic I'd guess. That's probably why they look like corpses, like it was noted vampires who don't drink blood do.
They can, but not all do. Pahtsekhen is capable of passing for a normal human because he periodically indulges the body in what it thinks it needs. Those that don't are the ones you get when you do an image search for 'liche priest'.
Magic does not follow the laws of thermodynamics. Enchantments can trivially make free energy.
Whatever Nagash did made it so that the default state of the soul of the Nehekharan dead was to remain indefinitely, instead of departing.
The amount of surpluses they would have had to throw around on that sort of thing would have been absurd. The food output of proper agriculture on a body of water like the Vitae is mind-boggling for the period.
More specifically, magic doesn't need to violate the laws of thermodynamics when there's an infinite pool of energy right there in the warp.
Also, even assuming that we expect WF to follow our laws of physics plus a magic term, we wouldn't expect conservation of energy anyway, because that depends on a 'regular' (there's rigorous definition of what that means, but it does not fit the margins of this post) flow of time. Which the Aether does not have. So no energy conservation anyway.
Incidentally, you might ask if a regular flow of time is required, what about Einstein's relativity? Does it have energy conservation? In general, no! In the special case of Special Relativity, time might get a little stretchy, but it's still regular enough to work (otherwise the famous E^2=mc would make no sense). But for General Relativity, it's not generally the case. If you can find a killing vector, which is an expression of regularity, then you are back in business, but this is not the case for all mathematically possible spacetimes. The typical assumption among physicists is that it is the case among all physically possible spacetimes, but we don't know that because the maths are a bitch and the theory is incomplete anyway.
This post is brought to you by my excitement about my favourite, tragically unknown physics fact. Aspect. Theme. Something.
