It depends on what you use to play sound. Most applications should be
using alsa directly so the alsa-oss emulation is not really necessary, 
it's only an additional layer on top of alsa.

As to alsa-firmware-loaders, the OP mentioned his card is recognized
correctly, and it's also not mentioned among the ones in the package
description.
