Except that a pure ALSA experience seems to be a thing of the past, since every distro out there seems to think that PulseAudio is the second coming... USE=-pulseaudio ftw. (Oops, I'm ranting. Sorry ^^).
I am cool with ALSA, OSS was good to me too... I have been using Linux for ten years and I learned something installing Slackware and building my own kernel and stuff. I will take a look at mplayer. Thanks!
