Searching for "/dev/dsp" string in the executable is enough to make an educated
guess. Finding the least obnoxious way to enable OSS is another matter,
however.

Unfortunately we occasionally need ALSA, because there is no OSS fallback or it
is broken in the application itself. Same goes for PulseAudio and whatever
replacement API freedesktop people devise in future once they decide the
current one is too reliable.
