This feature seems to have quietly slipped in to ALSA 0.9 without much 
fanfare. I can use a variety of apps (not more than one oss one mind you) at 
the same time, and this isnt a sound blaster live :)

If your apps dont have alsa and only oss support though, i would reccomend 
arts. Ive been using it for a while.
