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).
