I wasn't sure about it either. I was hoping it would provide kernel
modules that could be used or something like that. Might be worth
installing and then doing a equery f alsa-oss and see just what it does
include. If it won't help, uninstall and hope for another option.
Surely there is a way to do this, somewhere. :/
