Yes, I am. Should have been more explicit but I figured mentioning
snd-pcm-oss would tip people off. :)

This card is a SB AudioPCI 128. Using driver snd-ens1370

It may be possible, I'm not a devfs expert. Interestingly, when I try to
boot without devfs things don't want to work (alsa or oss) - probably
because my non-devfs dev filesystem is broken. The modules load but
programs can't find what they're looking for in /dev. I'm happy with
devfs anyway for the most part. (the exception being that lsof doesn't
seem to tell me anything)

I did some more digging and found this:

So it looks like a driver or OSS emulation problem of some sort.
