You don't need to install ALSA. You can do it if you don't like to use
OSS. But if you have a great running SB16 with OSS, why switching to
ALSA? I have a Soundblaster Life Player running with OSS-lite. This
one that's part of the kernel. I mean it is only neccessary to install
ALSA for soundcards, they are not supportet in OSS.
