I was able to get the OSS module (opl3sa2) installed in 2.6 and I was
able to get some nice hiss when doing 'cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp'. I
used the following modprobe line:

modprobe opl3sa2 io=0x370 irq=11 dma=0 dma2=1 mss_io=0x530 isapnp=0

the isapnp=0 part appeared to be required. The following showed up in
dmesg upon inserting the OSS module:

opl3sa2: Chipset version = 0x7
opl3sa2: Found OPL3-SA3 (YMF715E or YMF719E)

However, when I try to rmmod the opl3sa2 module, I get an Oops:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
 printing eip:

and now when I try to rmmod the module again, I get:

ERROR: Removing 'opl3sa2': Device or resource busy

So, yes, given the correct parameters, the OSS module (just like the
ALSA module) works with the occasional Oops. I guess the Oopses are
acceptable for now; it's the ALSA detection routines that are broken
themselves or that are broken by something in the 2.6 kernel (remember
that they work fine in 2.4).

Thanks.
