I'm aware of this.
This has nothing to do with the kernel option CONFIG_SND_OSSEMUL which Jan
referred to, and to which I was responding. "aoss" is also not compatible
with every conceivable program.
This is exactly why the OSS emulation option in ALSA is really a last resort
and should not be an excuse for people to ignore implementing ALSA support
directly. More so, it is very good justification for ditching "everything
OSS" as soon as possible, at least in new software.
