I started using ALSA in middle of februari and I had the same problem with
Quake II. This however disappeard by changing a sound option within the
game. (Trying to remember) I think it was something about best performance
or best sound quality. Anyhow there was an option in the game that fixed that
problem you also experienced.
The ALSA configurator script is so good in autodetecting the soundcard that
if Debian implements both OSS/Lite and ALSA, users will eventually end up
using the ALSA drivers. I have also noticed a better sound quality from the
ALSA drivers.
