Try adding the following to your /etc/modules.conf:
probeall /dev/sound sound-slot-0 sound-service-0-0 sound-service-0-1 sound-service-0-3
sound-service-0-8 sound-service-0-12
This will force all the aliases (including sound-service-0-3, which is
aliased to snd-pcm-oss) to get loaded when you lookup /dev/sound (which
devfs will do when something tries to stat() the directory).
