To get over this, I usually adjust the system to force all sound through a specific daemon (in my case, PulseAudio), and only allow that daemon direct access to the ALSA/OSS port; other daemons either access PulseAudio directly or are tricked by the PulseAudio ALSA plugin into thinking they're sending to ALSA when they're actually sending to PulseAudio. If you want to know how to do that, see here: http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
