One more reason why arbitrary scripting in packaging systems is bad...
The OSS package appears to be reaching around any sensible interfaces
and trying to re-enable the legacy audio system by directly running SVR4
package scripts which don't exist on OpenSolaris. "pkg fix" may be able
to fix the driver database so that the original drivers resume working.
Failing that, pulling the /etc/driver_aliases file from the @install
snapshot taken at install time may get your audio back.
I'd strongly advise anyone adding SVR4 packages to OpenSolaris to use
beadm to take a snapshot, if not create a separate boot environment,
before you let those packages loose on your system.
