As far as I know, it has always done this.

Agreed.  Have him run draksound and see if it gives him an option.  If
he currently is using ALSA and the OSS drivers also exist for that card,
it will show the OSS driver as an option.  Have him try that.  A reboot
might be required unless he knows how to remove the modules.  Usually
you can do service sound stop and service alsa stop and all the modules
get removed, but I won't swear to that, especially if he still has
something like artsd running.
