Those messages are related to the alsa modules. I guess you have installed
some alsa packages. You should look at /etc/modutils/alsa. In that
file, I have added the following line:
alias snd-card-0 gus
because I have a GUS compatible card.
Note that in /etc/modutils/aliases I have:
options gus io=0x220 irq=15 dma=6 dma16=-1
alias synth0 opl3
options opl3 io=0x388
to configure my GUS card.
In short the alsa modules uses the OSS sound modules to provide sound
for your system.
