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
