Dev,
There is a pcm OSS plugin in the ALSA plugins. It Looks like this -
app -> ALSA libs -> ALSA OSS plugin -> OSS device
(/dev/dsp,/dev/mixer)
jdsbuild at prae> ls /usr/lib/alsa-lib/*oss*
/usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_ctl_oss.so
/usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_oss.so
jdsbuild at prae> more /etc/asound.conf
pcm.oss {
type oss
device /dev/dsp
}
pcm.!default {
type oss
device /dev/dsp
}
ctl.oss {
type oss
device /dev/mixer
}
ctl.!default {
type oss
device /dev/mixer
}
