Yes, but Alsa has also a library interface above the kernel layer, so it
*might* be possible for some arch's to "emulate" that. But if some sound
architectures are alot different in concepts, you can forget it (alsa
library requires at least raw audio streams with some frequency, midi music
data and some concept of instruments, etc).
