please be sure to differentiate between "the current state of affairs" and "how ALSA is supposed to be". if oss-emu fails under certain conditions, thats a bug in ALSA, not a design issue. it needs to be reported (properly), and it will hopefully be addressed in due course. full binary OSS-compatibility is an integral part of the ALSA design space. --p
