I'm only pointing the issue. When you install a brand new sarge system,
sound doesn't work correctly on many kinds of hardware, because both OSS
and ALSA modules are loaded. Adding a Depends: is only a possible
solution, I'm sure there are better choices. However, I feel we
shouldn't release in this state after having spent so much efforts in
hardware detection.
