Workaround (very STRANGE) found...
To have it working absolutely with everything (all multimedia, games
etc..) I need to do following actions during startup (or after):
1. I have to load the oss drivers FIRST!!!
2. I have to unload them and load ALSA drivers.
3. I have to load the oss-compatibility drivers

Only then all my quake installations works...
following lines in my rc.local file had to be added:

modprobe emu10k1
rmmod emu10k1 ac97_codec
modprobe snd-emu10k1
modprobe snd-pcm-oss
modprobe snd-mixer-oss

Can somebody say me whats wrong with alsa drivers that it does not work
if I start them directly?
