alsa drivers have always done this.
i suggest adding:
above snd-card-cs461x snd-pcm-oss
pre-remove snd-card-cs461x modprobe -r snd-pcm-oss
pre-remove snd-pcm-oss /usr/bin/aumix -f /etc/.aumixrc -S >/dev/null 2>&1
post-install snd-pcm-oss /usr/bin/aumix -f /etc/.aumixrc -L >/dev/null 2>&1
(the pre-remove snd-card-cs461x should not be needed, but it is.
"modprobe -r snd-card-cs461x" causes snd-pcm-oss to be removed (using the
"above" command), but "modprobe -r" doesn't. IMO it's a bug in modprobe but
haven't had the time to have a better look at it.
