I have now gotten OSS working (I think) and ALSA turned off (I know). But
this is what I get now:
Opening OSS audio device '/dev/dsp'.
player: Can't open audio device: /dev/dsp

Along with this, mythTV just completely hangs and I have to do a Cntl-C
from the command line to stop the frontend.

I am running the via82cxxx_audio driver for my VT8233 [AC97 Audio
Controller] on board sound. This is an MSI K7T266 Pro motherboard.

Again, thank you for your help.
