You (or perhaps someone else) said this before, and I don't understand it. On 
my system, "lsmod | grep oss" shows no OSS modules (I do use ALSA) but I 
definitely have a /dev/dsp module (and if the alsa modules aren't installed, 
KDE will complain at startup about not having /dev/dsp).  What device would 
you _expect_ alsa to be using?  Alternatively, if Tim doesn't want to use 
deprecated OSS modules, what device should alsa provide?
