I've installed alsa-oss without results :(

I can't see it in aptitude logs --always I use aptitude.  Only one oss-compat 
0.0.3 to 0.0.4 at Oct 2 2006.   Seems that I never installed alsa-oss, but 
oss works in my system before the last week  :??

I can manually load oss modules:

$ sudo modprobe snd-pcm-oss
$ lsmod |grep -i oss
snd_pcm_oss            38368  0
snd_mixer_oss          15200  1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_pcm                68644  2 snd_pcm_oss,snd_cmipci
snd                    47012  10 
snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_cmipci,snd_pcm,snd_opl3_lib,snd_timer,snd_hwdep,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device

And have this in /etc/modules.conf but the boot process doesn't load those 
modules:
