I've been lurking on that list as well... I have everything working, but I'm 
not sure about your problem. I have everything alsa compiled in my kernel. 
However, I think there's a package for the alsa oss stuff... have you installed 
that as well? I believe those modules only get loaded via modules.d/alsa when 
they are present.

* media-libs/alsa-oss
     Available versions:  1.0.8-r1 ~1.0.9 1.0.10_rc2 1.0.10_rc3 ~1.0.10
     Installed:           none
     Homepage:            http://www.alsa-project.org/
     Description:         Advanced Linux Sound Architecture OSS compatibility 
layer.

Do you have this installed? Again, just a guess.

HTH.
