doesn't deal with OSS at all; it's reliant on JACK, which in turn
is reliant on ALSA.  OSS doesn't enter into the picture in terms of what
you're trying to do.   
 I agree with Joe's recommendation to use ALSA.

 But, there seems to be some misinformation floating around.  JACK
 *does* have an OSS backend (that's the only sound API available on
 some systems).  Type `jackd -d oss -h' for help. 
I made the same statement also... didn't realize it could be used with OSS.
