Meaning that solution provided by native ALSA is better than the one
provided when ALSA is emulating OSS (i.e., application accesses /dev/dsp
device, which is OSS port for sound). ALSA is rather complex beast
consisting of kernel modules (default sound in 2.6.* kernels) and number of
user-space packages; to get their list run:

dpkg -l \*alsa\* | grep -v player

What I understand from the message (and I have no idea, about the context)
is that you should forget about OSS and ALSA-emulating-OSS, but rather use
ALSA natively (which is what I would suggest anyway).

Best,

Matěj
