Bug#368307: libopenal0a: uses OSS instead of ALSA by default

[Laurent Bonnaud]

Package: libopenal0a
Version: 1:0.0.8-1
Severity: normal


Hi,

here is how I noticed this:

$ torcs
[...]
open /dev/[sound/]dsp: Device or resource busy


Using ALSA instead of OSS would bring many benefits:

 - actively maintained sound drivers
 - more supported sound cards
 - dmix support
 - ...

Fixing bug #346109 would be an easy way to fix this bug at the time
