Thats not the full story.

The problem is that the OSS emulation in ALSA has an endian-ness
problem on PowerPC (and probably other BE systems). I've just looked
at this code again and maybe I can come up with a fix for it. If so,
I'll post the fix to bug #350807.

The real OSS on PowerPC works correctly, as does ALSA output using 
ALSA.

If FreeBSD uses real OSS then FreeBSD should be OK.
