I did a bit of digging. In Fedora, it appears they have a patch to add
ALSA support to tvtime, it seems like it enables one to use the ALSA
mixer interface instead of the OSS interface (discussion at bottom):

Note that tvtime's use of OSS doesn't fall into the categori of hogging
the soundcard, it's merely using the mixer interface to control volume.
