OK, a brief review:

 - Why couldn't you use ALSA's DMA API?

 - The DMA must be stopped and started in the trigger callback, not the
prepare callback.

 - If this device lacks a volume control alsa-lib can emulate it in
software, just create a proper /usr/share/alsa/cards/your_card.conf
file.

 - By ALSA convention the acceptable formats, sample rates, etc should
be directly defined in the snd_pcm_hardware_t structure.

 - dev->oss needs to go.
