Do you see any advantage(s) to using OSS4 over alsa?

e.g.

1. less distortion and/or better quality?
2. more control over the sound (e.g. equalizers)?
3. others?

What about downsides?

(I am presently using alsa, and intermittently have blocked sounds -
guess it is due to how the app was written.)

TIA
