alsaconf is a very useful but old script.
I don't know if the behaviour has changed, but I guess that
noone has changed alsaconf itself.
I have the following lines in my modules file:
alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss
AFAIK it is necessary to have OSS emulation enabled in the
kernel.
Best regards
